Re: Ordered a Lithgow 1 Mk 3 from AIM
Down here they're simlar but much smaller, except for Queensland mosquitos which have much bigger ones. The Germans thought that the British Mosquitos had very big ones also.

Re: Anglo / American Translator.
Down here too,'fanny' is a somewhat more intimate part of the female anatomy than that upon which a pack might rest and there is often mirth in American movies when none was intended.
