Ok. Where I come from hooroo means hello or goodbye, as seen in some Radio National broadcasts.

Cooee is what you shout over a long distance to get attention or to get an echo (very common by the Three Sisters). Coo-ooh is a reply.

I'm a Sydneysider originally. Can possibly tell by me talking about the Three Sisters.

The funny thing is that I never said g'day when I was in Australia. No one I knew ever said it. Now that I'm in the UK it's become my standard greeting.

Same here. It's expected, just like Irish are expected to say 'Beggorah' and 'Top o' tha mornin'

Pert, you say....Perth?

I don't sound like Paul Hogan, so people often aren't sure where to place me. I'm definitely not a Geordie, but beyond that... A few have guessed South Africa. Right hemisphere, at least.

The young daughter of an ex was very amused by my voice. I got multiple requests to say "Wake up Jeff!". I was too old and too childless to understand why, which only added to the mirth.
