Hello Wendy

Having been in Australia last year on the Grimethorpe tour, I was politely
informed by a local in Perth W.A, that P.O.H.M stood for Prisoner of His/Her
Majesty, hence the term pohm(pom).......so when you sit back and think about
it, all non-aboriginal Australians are poms, not us :o)

By the way, Poms (persons of British origin).???? that would be a POBO
surely
