Down here, we describes pom migrants as like haemhorroids - they come out
without invitation, they are a real PITA while they are out, and it takes
a lot
of work to go them to go back.

No you don't!.
During the time spent there I found the Aussies without fail, to be
courteous and generous of spirit.
Gentle pommie goading on my part never revealed more than that the above
charicature applied about 40 years ago.
I know now that you guys maintain the myth just to keep that paradise all to
yourselves.
Bugger! Our secret's out - you had to blab, didn't you ;-)

So you are either an Aboriginie (spelling ?) or a haemhorroid ?
You have insufficient information to conclude either - we DO have emigrants from
almost all countries on spaceship Earth here in Oz. And the aborigines also
migrated here anyway.

But yes, I am of British isles ancestry ~1900.

Now be nice! (I was raised on Lester Flatt and Earl Scruggs :)
Weren't they responsible for a certain piece of banjo music?

Used in a documentary about the southern states called deliverance.
