Australian to English translations

I'd come across some of these translations when I've travelled previously and there had been Aussies/Kiwis on the tour but several I've only come across by living in Australia. 

Zucchini Courgette
Capsicum = Pepper (as in the vegetable)
Lollies = Sweets
Doona = Duvet
Thongs = flip flops
Pants = trousers
Undies = pants
Poppers = Cartons (as in cartons of juice)
Fairy floss = Candy floss
Singlet = vest/vest top
Flying fox = zip wire
