In the original context of "whinging pom", it definitely means
complaining or whining in Australia. It was applied to those poms who
migrated out here, and who were disappointed that things were different
from "home". A commonly accepted derivation of pom is from pommie, or
Prisoner Of Mother England, I guess going back to the old days when the
UK practised foreign rendition a couple of hundred years ago. ;->

Can Pom and Circumstance be played on a didgeridoo?

Can _anything_ be played on a didgeridoo?
Actually, someone did a study where they took a bunch of snorers and
had some of them take didgeridoo lessons, and follow-up found that
that group had fewer problems with snoring after a number of months
than the control group.
Not that that has anything to do with what's actually played, but I
found it interesting. :)
You sure they weren't just pretending to hold the pipe and making the
same snoring noises with their noses that they always had?
