bunyips? All because the Prime Minister's or someone else's person's in the government, I forgot who, great grandaunt was pursued by a huge bunyip, who came out of a billabong which she strolled along after she her customarily five o'clock tea with cucumber sandwiches? Poor woman ran for dear life, and had indigestion for days afterwards, and kept the aversion to five o'clock with sandwiches till the end of her days. The would be politician, who was in his dungarees then, was so impressed by this occurrence, that he wowed to outlaw the bunyips, and forbid them in Australia, if he ever came to power?

That was John Howard's great-aunt or something.
The bunyips are safe now that little Johnny and his cohorts are gone.

The Bun yips here come in all shapes and sizes. they are from the aboriginal folklore. So I guess you need to ask them if this is true. Which is quite possible as there is many a tale to be told about Bun Yips. I'm not sure about the Cucumber sandwiches though as the only stories I've heard about them is when people eat them at Wimbledon and I don't know how long they have eaten them at Wimbledon. Maybe our great player Yvonne Goolagong Cawley introduced them in memory of this poor woman

The Bunyips are not a problem, it is the drop bears that give us trouble.

In case you hadn't noticed, we had an election last month and changed governments. We got rid of the idiots. You seem to be behind the times.
