Another Aussie English lesson

A picnic on the beach! Here are some things to load into the back end of your ute (be sure to fill it with petrol before the trip): a big esky filled with biscuits, a pizza covered in aluminium, a salad of rocket, mushies and capsicum. Maybe you'd get take-away chook and some chips. The kids are going to want some lollies for dessert and maybe some icy poles too if you can keep them frozen. You'd also pack into your ute your bathers (a confident bloke would bring his budgie smuggler), your thongs for walking along the beach, a singlet if it's hot and a jumper if it's cold. Some in the group might want to get some exercise so they better bring their runners.
Did you remember everything? Spare tyre? Mobile? Good on ya! Let's get going!
Later, at the carpark, you'll turn on your indicator, pull over to the kerb, and open the boot to get out everything.  Time to put the shrimp on the barbie!
