Thongs aka Flip flops

I have only just realised that the word used in Australia for flip flops is thongs! So there is this wonderful sentence in the article on wearing high heels ; "thongs and ballet pumps not being the best option for women" a quote from an eminent senior Australian podiatrist, Mr Brown. He and I were both quoted in the article in The Sydney Morning Herald.

I shall be very mindful of the word difference for the future!
