One of the minor problems of being a young Australian is learning

the
strange word "girt", and hence that the national anthem does _not_
contain the bizarre claim "our land is dirt by sea".


Part of the motto of the CWA is
"through Country women
for country womn
by country women"

One of the children who came along always thought this was
"Three country women
Four country women
Five country women"
