Welcome Signgirl. I hope to hear more from you soon.
Also, whats the difference between being an "Aussie" and a "Kiwi"?

"Kiwi" is a slang term for a New Zealander, btw.
Australia and New Zealand are two completely different countries. New Zealand is made up of two main islands, Australia is the largest island continent in the world.

So I hope we can correct this misunderstanding!!!
