Crikey - that is really 'out there'

Ok I am an Aussie I dont generally walk around saying "crikey, fair dinkum and streth"! Regardless, at no time, ever in our country have these sayings been interpreted as swearing! Does the FA not watch TV, did she/he not see the Steve Irwin specials, these words are used constantly by Aussie icon, Steve (now gone).

Maybe that FA needs a trip downunder to understand the lingo.......
