Ok guys, here's a question that doesn't come up in this forum every day!
A good mate of mine has just dropped a sprog (well his girlfriend has). Apparently we need to get a pressie, so I figured a baby-sized Australian cricket shirt might be just the thing to make sure his son gets the right idea from the start (especially as the mum is English so we don't want any divided loyalties). Anyone know where I could buy something like that online? |

Cheers Shane. The page for kidswear is blank so I've sent them an email asking for any ideas they can give me. There's a lot at stake here so I need to make sure this kid is indoctrinated from the start. |

There's a lot at stake here so I need to make sure this kid is indoctrinated from the start. Absolutely mate! Failing the cricket gear....get him a portrait of Rolf Harris or Slim Dusty and maybe a didgeridoo or a wobble board. As part of the indoctrination you could try playing as many Merv Hughes and Michael Bevan videos you can get your hands. To complete the indoctrination, don't forget the history lessons about Bodyline and where OUR Ashes started and no doubt a Cricket Ball placed in the crib might produce another Warney.

Now for names:
Merv....Tugga....Pigeon.....Deano....Dennis....Boony.....Don......or Punter should suffice. Maybe they might even consider just calling him "G." And don't forget ole mate.....the mandatory jar of vegemite to dip his dummy in or alternately a can of VB does wonders. |
