It is just the Australian way to carry on about POMS .... most of our ancestors came here from the UK. Back in the 1960s we advertised to get more UK poms to come here and actually allowed the 10 pound POM thing. Also we had the White Australia Policy until the 70s.

And now it's black and yellow policy?
Anything goes. :thumb
