I'm watching - are you?

A Fair Go!

I like Miriam, yes she is vulgar, and crude, but she makes me laugh.

She speaks beautifully IMO and is brilliant at accents.
She does and she is talented.

So she doesn't need to try to shock with puerile language or swearing.

Ghastly woman.

Would love to have watched this, as I enjoy travel programmes. Can't stand this woman, so didn't. When I've watched her before, she seemed obsessed with her bodily functions.

I was never a fan but had enjoyed some of her performances in the past - before I read her autobiography where her disclosure of a friend's secret (ok, she said because she's dead!) was totally reprehensible - so, no I won't be watching the programme.

Episode 2 tonight. The class system in Victoria.

It's not a travel program.

Private school and privilege
In egalitarian Australia.
Interesting.

Egalitarian Australia.

Ah, bless...

Well, you know what I think (perhaps you forgot, it sounds as if you did).

Accents.
Interesting - do accents differentiate?
In Australia.

Naw. Everyone talks like Kath and Kim. ๐Ÿ˜

Callistemon21 Tue 03-Jan-23 21:39:22

Are you watching?

Oh yes. I knew that was Bendigo ๐Ÿ˜

There's no class system, said the man with 4 polo ponies.

Callistemon21 Tue 03-Jan-23 21:46:43

differentiate doesn't mean the same as differ.

Just to be clear.

Of course not, he lets his employees ride the ponies ๐ŸŽ๐ŸŽ๐ŸŽ๐ŸŽ
