Thanks.
Hi Charlie.

I thought only folks from Australia said G'day. It is also surprising to me to hear that the U.S. is more reserved in ANYTHING than the U.K. It has been my experience with Brits that they are reserved and polite with people right up until before they wring your neck.

Good Afternoon sir.

Have a chair.
