this can be misleading...people with neurological problems or injuries may hold themselves differently...but it is fun as a game... ;)

For my 28+ years in the New South Wales Public Service, I have always followed Quentin Crisp's ("The Naked Civil Servant") advice:
"Smile & Nod - it keeps the bastards guessing."
It's never failed me yet. I add one of my own to the "Smile & Nod" thing. As you're smiling and nodding, say "Certainly."
It works for me! I haven't been caught out yet, that I know of! ;) :D

them Aussies...they are a sly bunch...gotta watch THEM all the time...
David In Indy:
I think Australians are cute, don't you Jess? I LOVE their accents. They are so sunny and cheerful sounding.
Kerry, do Australians have different accents like we do here? I know they have many different accents in the UK as well, so I'm assuming you all also have accents which vary from one part of the country to another.
Over here, it's often quite easy to tell what part of the country a person comes from - sometimes even a particular state. My "Hoosier" ears can easily discern a Kentucky accent, an Ohio accent, a Michigan accent and to a lesser degree an Illinois accent from a speaker from Indiana. And those are all neighboring Midwestern states!
So I was wondering if this is also true in Australia? :)
