Wow! I never knew there was another Australian on this listserv! Why didn't
you say something? It's true what you say - an Australian tends to end up a
small fish in a big pond no matter their ability, simply because Australia
is considered somewhat of a `minor' country. Whereas in England you can get
away with just being English. Well, that's how it seems to us poor
ex-convict inferior culturally bereft philistines, anyway. What would we
know ? (:
