http://www.thepunch.com.au/author-bios/amy-fallon/ Amy Fallon is an Australian journalist who has worked in London for the past three years. She grew up in Murwillumbah and before moving to the UK worked for Australian Associated Press in Sydney. Amy spent most of her first year as a reporter in London door knocking council estates in the rain - and in heels – leaving her with frizzy hair and wrecked shoes. A highlight includes chasing Pete Doherty after a court appearancewhere outside court she noticed he was eating a sausage roll. She has still not solved its origins. She have travelled extensively, including six trips to Africa. en Copyright 2012 The Punch penberthyd@newsltd.com.au penberthyd@newsltd.com.au Sat, 26 May 2012 20:00:49 +0000 Sat, 26 May 2012 20:00:49 +0000 Politics, opinion, world news, sports news, latest news, views, Barack Obama, Kevin Rudd, Julia Gillard, Nathan Rees, Malcolm Turnbull, Peter Garrett, Barnaby Joyce, Australian, federal politics, opinion polls, election, The Punch, thepunch, punch ExpressionEngine 1.6.7 http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/tech/rss 15 http://www.thepunch.com.au/images/punch-logo-rss.png http://www.thepunch.com.au/ 144 70 Politics, political opinion, world news, sports news and the latest news and views updated live, daily on The Punch - Australia's best conversation.

For the past three years I’ve been in the Old Dart, I’ve been bombarded with questions such as “so… have you eaten kangaroo testicles?” whenever the latest instalment of the annual reality show rolls around. It’s my second draw card, my first one being my ocker twang. I have used them both to get a story, a drink, even a date in the Motherland. Last year I used the I’m a Celebrity factor to impress a potential Brummie suitor. feedback@thepunch.com.au (Amy Fallon) Article http://www.thepunch.com.au/articles/The-one-story-the-English-actually-give-a-rats-about/#comments http://www.thepunch.com.au/articles/The-one-story-the-English-actually-give-a-rats-about/#item1957 Wed, 09 Dec 2009 19:40:26 +0000 Amy Fallon | Author bios | The Punch
