In response to Re The Whinging Pom (San Migs)

And WHAT do you consider the origins of 'POM'?

Before you say 'Prisoner of Mother England' or it is mis-spelt POHM (prisoner of her majesty) etc etc, it's all fallacy and myth
Pom is supposed to be short for pomegranate because, according to the Aussies. pomegranate rhymes with immigrant (imme-granate
Which is probably why the Aussies never produced any GOOD poets lol
