would you like a seperate thread or have an incorporated into an ANZAC type thread - l think becaause we are btoh small countries with in many ways similar interests and history it could be good l have asked Brian to think about this - however l beleive that we as Australians and NEw Zealanders should put our opinions forward - we do do this well generallly.
Thank you for your replies l am still of the opinion that the title of Australia limits people who contribute
I might get myself organised in a day or 2 and ask Brian re a name change - this may not be possible now - however if it is explained in the next newsletter then it may be OK
Hey Tookie if you recheck this thread you might notice we got the name change - I picked Australasian froum as so many conferences and Journals use that name and it does include everone in this little corner of the world
Although I am only new to the forums I think the Kiwis should be included. Some of the nicest folk I have met are New Zealanders! I like the ANZAC idea, as long as we can forge a fraternal/sororal relationship with the proviso that it is still ok to "take the piss" where necessary! If the term ANZAC is used then we must be reminded to honour those after whom the term was coined. :)
Partly the reason I did not got with ANZAC was that I wanted the forum "Google" friendly. I WANT people to be able to find us and Australasian would be more likely to be typed in than ANZAC. Sorry bit of pragmatism there.

Why not simply;
"Down Under" Nurses forum.
That pretty well covers all of us in the south pacific.
