Let you into a secret. A red haired aussie is called (nicknamed) 'bluey' 
and most people stay well away from them when they drink
as they are likely to start a 'blue' (fight). yes I do recall what you call 
us whiteys, but then many aussies call each other 'bastard/old bastard'
as a form of greeting: amongst other things :)

G'day owyergoin ?
