Chuffed: I have ascended from the mortal realm into a Godlike state. The world is mine to command!
Pretty good: I have discovered the secret of immortality. Oh, and I can fly.
Not too bad: Just remembered I bought shares in Apple in 1999.
Can't complain: Everything in life is on track and it's not raining.
Miffed: I have been declared bankrupt.
A bit down in the dumps: I am being mauled by a Bear.
I've been better: The sun is out and I am not in a pub garden. I have lost the will to live.

It is amazing just how close English and Australian ways are sometimes. The only real difference is we don't use the word Chuffed, and I can't repeat in polite company what we say instead
