OZ-words Competition

Following are results from an OZ-words Competition where entrants were asked to take an Australian word, alter it by one letter only, and supply a witty definition. Clearly, you need to be an Aussie to understand.

Billabonk: to make passionate love beside a waterhole.
Bludgie: a partner who doesn’t work, but is kept as a pet.
Dodgeridoo: a fake indigenous artefact.
Fair drinkum: good-quality Aussie wine.
Flatypus: a cat that has been run over by a vehicle.
Mateshit: all your flatmate’s belongings, lying strewn around the floor.

Shagman: an unemployed male, roaming the Australian bush in search of sexual activity.
Yabble: the unintelligible language of Australian freshwater crustaceans.
Bushwanker: a pretentious drongo, who reckons he’s above average when it comes to handling himself in the scrub.
Crackie-daks: ‘hipster’ tracksuit pants.

And for the Kiwi’s amongst us:

Shornbag: a particularly attractive naked sheep.
