quicko: tuck

AKA food. Not sure where they got this one from, but they seem to like it.

quick: where's who?

Instead of Waldo, Australians are constantly in search of Wally. As a sidenote, they also play Clue-do instead of simply Clue.

quicko: mate's rates

Aussie slang for "good deal because we're friends," but oddly catchier, go figure.

quicko: narky

So this is a word I understand in context but find very difficult to describe. It's kind of picky, snotty or persnickety. Yes, I think perhaps persnickety would be the word, only in a slightly narkier sort of way.

quicko: billabong

Just as it's a commonly known Australian word (funny how having a brand with the same name can do that to a word) with a relatively unknown meaning outside Oz, I'd like to note on the record that a billabong is, indeed, a watering hole. I know some of you suburban folk aren't entirely familiar with the concept, but, well, use your imaginations and I think it might come to you. If not, alas, I do not think I can be of any further assistance.

quicko: a pinch and a punch ...

... for the first of the month!

(Stay safe today!)

quicko: to be over something

This is another Australian classic. All of sudden out of the blue one day it hits someone that, gosh, he just can't stand coke anymore, and voila, he's over it. Done and simple. Take anything as an example. An author. A phrase. Everyone's favorite pub. A job. Over it, out the door, adios.
