Well, I know some OZ-guys(even some living in Melbourne and NSW) and according to them aussies uses nicknames all the time. One friend of my sisters who is named Steven is called Steve all the time, and he doesnīt like that. Anyways, You also said that Marzena is sick of being thought of as Neri. I also thought that is what would happen, she got famous for this part, so thatīs the one everybody is identifying her with. I bet ppl donīt go "Hey, youīre Marzena Godecki right?" if they meet her in the street, they probably call her Neri instead. Itīs not like Lauren Hewett or Jeffrey Walker who has had numerous parts, so she wonīt be thought of as anyone particular. (Correct me if Iīm wrong Lauren) Actually the woman who played Mary Poppins in the movie was so sick and tired of "being Mary Poppins" that she started wearing a badge that said "Mary Poppins is a junkie" :) So if you ever see a girl with a t-shirt that says "I hate Neri" then itīs probably Marzena Godecki :)
: They also had to tape Marzena's microphone to
: her arm because it wouldn't fit anywhere
: else in her costume!
Tape, ouch must have hurt, but I wonder how they avoided that it didnīt circuit in water.
