    Hi John,
    What is your understanding of a "wog mate" - you wouldn't get away with using that term here in the UK as it is considered to be very derogatory here.
    Just interested.
    Cheers,
    DaveK.

    My System:
    Power: Belkin PF40, Custom.hifi.cables Hydra and DC PSUs.
    Sources: Self built HTPC with Xonar ST sound card, NAD T585 multi disc player, Sony BDP-S350, Squeezebox Touch, Techncs SL1210 (mod'd) + Nagaoka MP30, Thomson Sky HD box.
    Amps etc.: 2 x Mini-T amps, MF-X10D Valve buffer clone, StanDAC 7520/Caiman (mod'd).
    Speakers: Mission 774s with added super tweeters
    Cables: best I can afford and likely to change except Homar's RF attenuated co-ax's and Mark Grant USB and HDMI cables. I also like silver i/cs and speaker cable.

    I'm not sure that you definition of "wog" is that same as the derogatory term but either way it's totally unacceptable language in the UK which in some circumstances would lead to you being prosecuted or loosing your job. It doesn't do any favours for this forum either.

    I know that Italy (like Spain) is not as PC as the UK - I have a lot of Italian family - but the use of that word is so far over the line......

    John, the Oz use of the word is somewhat strange and those three letters actually have a meaning that for sure never included Italians. Wily Oriental Gentleman - then it spread to include other non-white races.

    There is another similar derogatory word used for Italians (just one letter different). The word you used is taken by most people to be immensely racist. I can see the meaning you intended and it is different from the normal meaning. You've for sure not insulted anyone here, I'm not saying that. It just that those sorts of words could get this forum shut down, these things are monitored by the authorities.

    I know you didn't intend anything unpleasant, as you say let's move on.

    Hi Clive ,,

    I would like to ask anyone in the UK after seening the film of the The wog boy , if they had many laughs , in this film they refer to greek guy's but it's the same for Italian's. I had lived in Australia for 20 years I was born in Queensland , today it's not a racist word , also in the 80s on TV in Australia
    every week a comedy show called Kingswood country and they said wog min 30times in half an hour, Sorry I don't have the feel of how it's in the UK , but the BBC has passed these shows in the UK,

    lets move on , or mabye better I find another forum don't want to cause any hassles it's not my nature ,

    Ps I think Stans Caiman dac is number 1 that was the reason of my first post,,

    Bye
    John

    BTW I also have family in Oz and I've just spent a very enjoyable month there, indeed half of our time was in FNQ. Oz is kinda weird, great but weird. Some aspects are very modern (mainly Sydney) other aspects are surprisingly colonial and 60's or 70's based, in some some respect it's like going back in time. OMO soap powder being one very trivial example. I think that views of what happens in the UK are really quite dated. Sounds like a negative but I love Oz!
