Two good Aussie-isms

These may also be British, not just Aussie-isms; not sure.


For the following "mad" means "crazy," not "angry."

(1) "barking mad"

(2) "mad as cut snakes"


For example, Queenslanders are mad as cut snakes. Supposedly.


Feel free to pepper these throughout your conversation and e-mails.
