Hi Archie...We have a lot of this slang down here that probably leaves the world shaking it's head...."Fair suck of the sav" means "fair go mate" which means "give us a break"...Sav is short for savaloy or hot dog..Fair dinkum mate, you need to spend a few weeks in Oz...You probably won't want to go home...We are really too easy going, Bullshit is a favorite pass time...I think it goes with the beer and BBQ culture...But don't get our backs up or we want to fight...After a good pub brawl which usually finishes up in the dust outside a pub, we all retire back for a few more beers before starting the second round...Nobody really gets hurt and we are all mates afterwards...We never hold grudges..
