>Do you mind if I ask where you are from - I thought America? I am from Australia, although I think the g'day may have given it away!
Nah! The "G'Day" didn't give it away one bit ...
I'm originally from Michigan, but have lived in NYC for a little over 5 years now. I tend to pick up accents -- still say y'all from a year of living in Balmore Murlynd, where they think they are Southerners inspite of historical fact -- so it was probably your own G'Day that made it stick for me.
Hope you're having a happy Spring down there.
