I know I'd said no more from me, but recent posts have jogged a memory of a quote from Vincent Sorrenti.
Vince is a nice and very funny guy, who was MC at a recent RFS fund raiser I attended in Sydney.
According to Vince, a little known fact is the word shark, is also a contraction of distinctly Australian origin.
Early Australian beach-goers, when presented with the up-close-and-personal sight of a big fish with multiple rows of sharp teeth, often uttered: sh**!!! *ark !!!!! all while briskly leaving the water.
