Should have been clearer. I think she is Aussie (granted she could be a Kiwi but's it's same difference)
The Missus thinks she is Saffer.

The word "hoover" for vacuum has never been part of the Aussie idiom except in the Pommy diaspora. This is probably larger in Oz than RSA. The Kiwis use "hoover" more frequently so don't rule out Kiwi.

Of course just like United States inhabitants and Canadians or Texans and Mexicans.

What if she said "Nielfisk"? What would that make her?

Ah, but this changes everything : She is now definitely Saffer. Even if she is Aussie.

Maybe she's a Kiwi! Or Zimbabwean. Or from Luton.

As Pete mentioned when he posted this beast - it's a tap chord! (I think my left hand has only just stopped hurting!)
Of course you'd never mainstream with such a chord (unless you're Frank Zappa), just use it in a transition!

See.... the problem with these is you have to say the words as though they were one continuous word. If you have trained yourself to leave a momentary pause between words when speaking (to improve your communication with others), these don't work as well.
But, once understood, they are amusing.
