I'd love to know if Skippy is still alive lol

He would say to the kid "Click click click click"

The kid would say "What Skippy? There's a kid down the well?"

Translation of Skippy's language?

"Oi give me some leaves I'm hungry" lol

Re: Australia or USA?

As a kid I used to fantasize about both Skippy, and Flipper, which was set in Florida. I've been to San Francisco, lived in Seattle and Alaska, but I'd like to see New York City most I guess because of the history.

Sonny Hammond (IIRC) his name, played the kid

When Sonny moved onto other things, Skippy & Joey were shelved, until only recently to see the light of day

Being Australian and having seen much of my homeland America is now well and truly top of our bucket list.

Two different cultures, though both having English as their native language
Which one would you prefer to spend a holiday/vacation?

For me it would be Australia

I would also prefer Australia, of course. For me, it's important to live in the sunny climate conditions.

Well, the first time I ever got to 'meet' a wallaby in person it was at a U.S. zoo, so I have to give points for that, but truly I'd love to be able to take a boat down under and see the wallabies there in larger numbers. I think they're the cutest things and had a toy stuffie one that was special to me for years as a kid, my wallababy. I have relatives from Holland who did the visit to Victoria province to visit and stay with some of my uncle's relatives (but they wouldn't be mine except through him), and they brought me a couple of wall hangings, one with 'roos, and also a letter opener (I used to write letters) with a 'roo as the handle which i still have if I don't really use much now. Also I used to watch Home And Away for a few years and like to watch surfing.

If I hadn't already been all over the U.S. west coast, far north and farthest south, I might feel differently, but Australia for sure! Don't expect me to develop a taste for vegemite though.

I don't speak kangaroo.

I've been to the US several times now and have no desire to return, I'd like to visit Australia but I think that will have to wait for my retirement all being well.
