As defined in The Concise Oxford Dictionary .....
whinge v.i. whine, grumble peevishly.
Used mainly by Australians to describe Poms (English persons) when complaining, which is of course most of the time You know the usual - too hot/too cold, too much flavour, too much soap, etc, and extends to the myriad of excuses used to explain why Aussies flog them at every sport - except the obvious one being that they weren't good enough, such as "the sun was in our eyes!" (meaning that they never see it at home), "Athers had a cold!", "couldn't get a decent cuppa", "the loo paper's too rough!", "Aussie supporters called us names instead of rioting in the streets!", blah, blah, bloody blah!
Aussies never tire of bagging the Poms

Turn 250 ==> Rick
The Fatherland has relented and accepted the peace terms brokered by Comrade Mobius. Fuhrer Demosthenes is said to be in hiding deciding upon how best to lead the nation of Wales in these environmentally unstable times.

The first of Wales new environmental measures have entered active service. We hope that the communist nations follow suit and initiate an anti-pollution scheme of their own.

Turn 252 ==> Rick
Wales welcomes any news that Rome is lowering her emissions, and this is doubly important as scientists point out this turn that we have just 49 turns to avert from environmental catastrophe.

Once again we cast doubt onto Communist claims as the Egyptians increase their noxious output.
Would you be so patient if the Fatherland did the same?

Er, except for the brothers who couldn't hack it, of course

Our scientists estimate that as the seas rise, only the floors above the 24th floor will remain above water in buildings within coastal cities. On the other hand, the surf should be awesome! Still, non-surfers may not find this an equitable tradeoff, so if recent progress continues, we may still escape a soaking!
No, really, i do!
