Test your Aussie mettle - Onya - Breaking News :
"People who want to become UK citizens now have to pass a test of Britishness to make the grade.
Questions include:
* Your employer can dismiss you for joining a trade union. True or false?
* Which two telephone numbers can be used to dial the emergency services? 112, 123, 555 or 999?"
It is odd how you define your culture and it is odd what defines a culture. The News has gathered reader responses as to which questions we'd need to detect whether people were Australians or not. It's funny, very Australian and just the sort of thing we need to be a foil to all the other things going on at the moment.

Is the traditional Aussie Christmas dinner: a) At least two roasted meats with roast vegetables, followed by a pudding you could use as a cannonball. Also ham. In 40C heat. b) A seafood buffet followed by a barbie, with rather a lot of booze. And ham. In 40C heat. c) Both of the above, one at lunchtime and one at dinnertime. Weather continues fine."

How do you apply your tomato sauce to a pie? a) Squirt and spread with finger b) Sauce injection straight into the middle?"
