G'day Susanne,

Thank's for pinning Keiran down to an explanation! What I had been trying to get was a larger sample of the song, so that I could judge the 'tone' of it ... indeed, whether the great fuck all was a possible reading. I just couldn't tell from what was given.

I must say that I have never struck that particular usage ... or any similar expression for antipathy to the Outback ... but I probably don't know the sort of blokes Keiran was talking to (and, anyway, they're Queenslanders ...!).

Regards,

Bo Bolton
