A warning from downunder

You are about to get a Tourisim add that does not depict australia well at all :mad:

There catch phrase/slogan line is "Where the bloody hell are ya?"
TBH no one i know says that :mad:

There is a big fuss about this add down here at the moment.

This add in no way depicts Australia.
You have been warned.

:mad:

I don't think Australia is one of those countries that needs advertised, everyone see's it as a sunkissed paradise with beaches, babes, bbq's and utes. BONZA!

I doubt we'll get it for the simple fact that it contains the words "bloody" and "hell".

Yep but either too many decades late or very off the mark.

I have not heard "Where the bloody hell are ya?" said in public once

Well apart from some guy that i went to school with that always sounded stupid when trying to swear.

Most of us say "Where the **** are ya?" or "Where are ya?"
