Try speaking with an Irish dielect & cooing softly into their ear.

The Irish accent may not work coming from Linus Pan, after all he's a tad too hairy...
imac Pan? How about a pair of tweezers, will they do?
I've not had any problems in reaching hootoo . Perhaps the problem is only with overseas visitors who need their visas updating to visit Auntie Beeb?

Given that our ABC seems to buy every program the bbc has ever made, i should be given a 
gold pass!

That's because the majority (Eastenders excluded) of our BBC telly & radio programmes are so damned good Linus!
I'm sure that if you paid Auntie Beeb a license fee, even in Aussie $, you'd be awarded a platinum pass!

Pan, you mean you're going to start charging me now 
Gwennie, apart from our of a prime minister it's not so bad being an Aussie. At least we still have an interest in the world cup

Linus, why are you talking to Gwennie? Can't you see she's had stuffing knocked out of her by a big red bus?!
...*looks in her book-o-spells...* 
PUUUUUUFF
Gwennie is now dancing on point in a pink tutu & satin slippers.
Say, Linus. You wouldn't happen to have any video equipment about? 
Of course I wouldn't charge you! 'Course all donations are gladly accepted.

*Climbs of her point and pulls at her tutu in disgust* 
Thanks a lot (I think) Pan! Anyhow, since when have you been charging punters cos I had always assumed that they were paying you?
World Cup Linus? Wassat when it's at home then? Actually we're supporting the Aussies in this household now...

Gwennie, if I've told you once, I've told you once! Stop feeding aussies! You'll NEVER get rid of them if you keep feeding um! Sheesh!

Actually it is quite safe to feed us, but giving us a drink is a totally different matter
