Forgive my confusion, I didn't expect you to insult him in that fashion (Ambrose is from Oz, Tasmania to be specific, he's not a New Zealander. Aussies don't care to be mistaken for Kiwis, and Kiwis absolutely hate to be mistaken for Australians). John (who's not serious about the insult bit) |

Hmmmm... forgive my ignorance. I had heard him called Kiwi by someone, somewhere before so I just repeated it. I also was not aware of the animus between the Aussies and the Zealies ( I don't get out much). Mike |

Confusing us with Aussies is one thing...... but now you are compounding your error! |

Yeah, back in the day when I was a Marine we trained with Australian Marine (Aussies) and NZ Marines (zealies). That nickname may have been a "Marine" thing since come to think of it, I haven't heard it used since. |
