Subject: RE: Folklore: translations from the Australian part 2
Helen, several years ago we were walking with friends at Gulgong during their new year folk festival when a local bloke in his hotted-up ute drove past with illegal lights underneath glowing away in the night. We laughed and said something about "hoons", which amused our German friend Ingrid mightily - in German, "hoon" is hen!
