grouse
Word heard mostly in Australia's 2nd largest city, Melbourne meaning something wonderful, amazing.

Ok... I get it now. Up here a Grouse is a woodland game bird. People say "gross" meaning disgusting. That's what made me confused.
Where's GBSISSON?.....I can't believe he'd let a big truck post go by without commenting. Great looking truck... Mark
