Dear Friends,
To understand the humour in this joke you need to know that in
Australia the word "route" is pronounced "root" and thus can mean:-
- the root of a tree
- the direction of travel
- intercourse
The newspaper, "The Australian," over a period of weeks sought entries
for The Great Australian yarn.
This was the winner:
Two cattle drovers were standing in an Outback bar. One asked, "What
are ya up to, mate?"
"Ahh, I'm takin' a mob of 6000 from Goondiwindi to Gympie."
"So what route are you takin' mate?"
"Ah, prob'ly the Missus ... After all, she stuck by me durin' the drought"
