Aussies and Kiwis, what's the difference ?

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

So lets start a list of famous Australians, who were born in NZ.
It's a bit hard to decide whether a person is a Kiwi, because they were born there or a Australian cause they live there, but jump the ditch every so often. Many , like myself, until recently even had two passports.

Here's a few that I know of
Manu Bennett, actor in The Hobbit
Keith Urban
Allison Durbin
Neil, Tim Finn
Sam Neil
John Clark [ Fred Dagg ] TV
Derryn Hinch TV/Radio commentator
Don't forget:
Split Enz
Crowded House
Dragon
Sharon O'Neill
Trevor Chapell


:dragonchase:
Tripod?
Flight of the Conchords?

(Don't know, too lazy to Google, asking.)

Q: How do you know you have a kiwi in the house?
A: There is a love bite on the leg of lamb in the fridge

Q: Why do New Zealand racehorses run so fast?
A: Because they have seen what they do to the sheep.

Q: Why do Kiwis fu.k their sheep on the edge of a cliff?
A: Because they push back harder.

BTW, include in the list Phar Lap, "Australia's" greatest racehorse.

Also Fred Hollows, famous Eye surgeon, an Aussie Icon
