Andrew, I think few people will be offended by mild Aussie slang. However, I think this was discussed previously, companies are starting to place e-mail filters on their mail servers which prevent the message from being passed through. So, if you use foul language you may be talking to no-one.

Really sounds like you are... I thought it was not uncommon for people to use mild slang to setup a kind of chummy casualness - same way that smileys are used in this poorly inflected medium we lovingly call e-mail. You must think I'm a real foul mouth, from some of the Aussie vernacular I slip in? Are there many people with issues on language, or can we stay relaxed? I don't want to offend anyone, but I'm not going to live in a monestary... ************************************************************************This e-mail is intended for the use of the individual or entity named above and may contain information that is confidential and privileged.
