RE: Question for writers in New Zealand and Australia

["McLauchlan, Kevin" <Kevin -dot- McLauchlan -at- safenet-inc -dot- com>]

Culturally/personality-wise (and based on limited personal evidence.... some people I used to hang with), I'd say that the NZ/AU relationship has a lot of similarity to the CAN/US relationship. 

One "partner" is softer-edged, polite, and more laid back, while the other is brasher. 


AU "Throw another shrimp on the bar-bee."
NZ "Have the Aussie throw another shrimp on the bar-bee, please."
