    i'm gonna vote for emu - that thudding boom they make is massive!

    or perhaps a large stag? large antlers could easily make it seem wide and tall.

    not sure what sort of sounds they make though - foot stamps or bellows?

    also, after the misunderstanding between lofty and velvetsiren,

    got me thinking as to what is an appropriate term to collectively refer to indigenous australians?

    even "aboriginal" can be taken as insulting by some.

    and more so, what would be a suitably acceptable 1 or 2 syllable colloquial term?

    and by colloquial, i mean able to be spoken face to face without perception of racial attack or prejudice.

    "abo" is obviously well and truly stained by racial bigotry, even if it is the most linguistically logical.

    "black" is way too generic and culturally shallow, with an unpleasant undertone of superficial assessment

    would "wurra's" or "noon's" or "aba's" (location/language specific groups) be perceived as insulting?

    I'm honestly not trying to stir shit, just like to find out what would be acceptable terms for informal conversation.

    e.g. (chatting to a group of blokes - "so you guys are _______? i.e poms, yanks, wogs, aussies, maoris, kiwis, serbs, esay's)

    Is there a casual term that can be used by everyone without perception of prejudice?

    thats maliciously f*cked up!

    it would have to be a statement of some sort - being on election eve and a tree with some political history.

    as the tree was historically significant in relation to the vic/nsw split of 1851

    who might possibly have a bone to pick against that...

    mindless vandalism seems unlikely, but shouldnt ever underestimate stupidity

    state loyalists - are they even existent?? maybe misguided bogan jingoism?

    mining industry? (seeing as the state split in 1851 was related to gold finds in both states) a eureka stockade scenario?

    migrant related? (growth of vic via immigration during gold rush)

    land rights (differing old state views on socio-political land management)

    aboriginal activism (trees as significant cultural anchors - i.e kills ours, we'll kill yours)

    *list is updated*

    i'm doing 'first in, first serve' timing of the pm's and topic reply. (2 people minutes apart for the same item)

    my mistake- it obviously works better when people post in the topic what they want, rather than pm

    soz to those who missed what they were after.

    has a specific note regarding shipping to aus

    also try any local asian/islander spice shops, they'll probably still have some.

    if someone wanted to move to samoa/fiji/vanuatu, you could pay a few tourists returning home to australia to bring in the 2kg per person legal allowance.
