I think you've got it backwards Alex...it's the floor. I used to be called the "Mop".........

Ah OK. I was called the toilet brush because of thick, spiky hair.

The videos are great and funny...Don't worry, Alex. I also have a friend who was called "the toilet brush". He simply laughed at the ones who called him that...

Oh no, it isn't that long anymore. That was taken the day I got it cut for the first time. I was 12.

Love your accent Alex! I have a cousin who lives in Australia. He was born in El Salvador but his accent changed when he moved to Australia.

I do, too. And I love how your younger brother hops as he's trying to mop the ceiling. Looks like it might be just a *bit* more work for him than it is for you with your height. You looked like you were both having fun, though! That's the way to do it - make work fun!

But does Aussies have different kind of accent depending in which part of Australia are they living? Here, in Argentina we have different accent. It depends of the province. I ws raised in B.A, and my accent is plain, like people speaks Spanish there, but some friends saids me that I have some words I said just like my mother's family, who would come from Rosario, Santa Fe, Argentina.

Yes. Different Parts of Australia say words differently. The East coast states of Australia have a slightly different accent from us from South Australia.

It's the same here in the states. Accents can be vastly different. (And I love hearing them all!)
