    With apologies to John Mellencamp:
    Little story about Jack and Me-gan
    Two Australian kids travellin’ this wide land
    Jack’s gonna be a UA-cam star
    ‘Cos Megan’s editing in back of troop car.
    Now they got Myrtle, she’s white and she’s green,
    Home on wheels, build your own dream.
    Jack says, "Hey, Megan found a Merv on top of this shelf
    Be a shame to evict him, let him do what he please".
    Oh yeah travellin’ on
    As long as the thrill of it, it’s not gone,
    Oh yeah, travellin’ on
    As long as there’s a thrill in it
    It’s not gone.
    Jack sits back reflects his thoughts for a moment
    “It’ll take 3 months to rebuild the van”.
    Well, you know Me-gan, it was the best part of eight months
    Megan says, "Now just us, Myrtle and the open road".
    Oh yeah travellin’ on
    As long as the thrill of it, it’s not gone,
    Oh yeah, we say, travellin’ on
    As long as there’s a thrill in it
    We will go on.
    Myrtle rocks, let her roll
    She’s good for us, part of our soul.
    Hold on to Myrtle as long as we can
    Changes things around, this van she is our home.
    Oh yeah, life goes on
    Long as we’re travellin’, bring you along
    Oh yeah, they say life goes on
    Long as we’re travellin’, please tag along.
    A little ditty about Jack and Me-gan
    Two Aussie kids bein’ the best they can.

    I just want to say thankyou for sharing this.
    I’m about to open a business again after 4.5 years of walking away from it. I was always told to start doing UA-cam videos for it but didn’t fully understand how it all worked.
    Now that I’ve had 4.5 years out I will absolutely start doing them.
    So thankyou for sharing the information about pricing accordingly during the x months.
    This information is not shared and quite frankly it’s pivotal to making sure to understand your own value.
    Again I can’t say it enough thankyou for your rawness x

    Just hearing Megan talk about needing a shower, how do you feel now about Myrtle's bathroom build? Do you ever consider or think about the difference of tackling the challenge of the bathroom verses a bathroomless Myrtle while out and about? I get that you did 2.5 laps of Australia in a Troopy without a Bathroom, however I am interested to hear your thoughts after a couple of months on the road with Myrtle?

  • @4wd4mentalhealth58
    @4wd4mentalhealth58 6 днів тому +2

    WA and SA have a more clean sound to their speech. I attribute it to being settled by free settlers who could afford to pay for passage whereas the eastern states began as a penal colony and most criminals were from a poorer classe that were usually less educated. This meant that their dialect was rougher. Hence the different dialects.

  • @tonybryant3863
    @tonybryant3863 5 днів тому

    I'm a Brit living in Queensland, so to my ears you guys sound less Australian, probably cos of more Brits migrating to Perth or Adelaide than over here and collectively diluting the Australian-ness of the local dialect.
    I can certainly hear Melbourne vs. Sydney, and Brisbane vs. (say) Rockhampton, so as I have been asked many times, there are a number of regional variations in the overall Australian accent.
    Mind you, as a Londoner, 'Little Australia' aka Shepherd's Bush with every other person you talk to being an Aussie, I couldn't pick up any differences, but i must say some guys I couldn't understand at all...

    Australia is the only continent in the world that every single state can understand the rest. When you start the bullshit of different accents think about America and England. Australia is the only place on the earth where we all speak and understand the same language. Yes my cousins in Mackay might have a more country sound to what they say but we all understand each other
