Question for Aussies!
I know you all have some different names for stuff. Like our mustangs are your Brumbies and a woman is a sheila ect ect so................
I have a nice outback duster and a water buffalo hat ( like living in waterproof land,lol) what do you call those in Australia - mine are both actually from Australia where as hubbys are from China ,lol.Do you call the coat a "drover"?? what about my hat??

Yep I was with you to start with Courtney LOL. It was "Huntress you have a what"??? A duster??? It's funny how different we are - even western countries that speak the same language. I agree probably would be drizabone and akubra.
