Nah, one is the font of rugby league reason and an all-round, affable good bloke while the other is an animated slacker. 😉

This was Sydney's Taronga Park Zoo in 1963 - in the era where children's shows featured a smoking chimpanzee!!

I still say spunk. Or good sort.
Slang words or phrases like bugger off, lippie, servo, hold your horses and box seat are probably used most days. G'day and fair dinkum or Dinky-di sometimes.

Sayings or phrases I don't hear much anymore are:
- The bee's knees
- Bless your cotton socks
- Don't know you from a bar of soap
- Every man and his dog
- On your bike and
- Happy little vegemite
Though I've heard @Merlot and a few other forum members say a couple of them. Same as Buckley's Chance.

Notice terms like trackies/tracky daks, budgie smugglers, sanga, Macca's, barbie, brekkie, sucked in and chock a block are still commonly used. Strewth and Crikey I haven't heard since Steve Irwin....

Would love to hear any other old sayings and phrases.

a door way is for passing thru ,not standing in,dead as a dodo,blind as a bat - thick as a plank of wood,as far as the back of Bourke,west of the Great Divide,south of the dingo fence,lost in the never never
