What is the meaning of the phrase "good on ya" and when do you use it?
I have an idea of the meaning but I am unsure when it is used.

If i'm not mistaken I believe the term is equal to an American saying "Well done" or "Good job." Not 100% but when I've heard this phrase in context, it makes sense to me that his is what it means. For an example one might say, "Oh, you shaved your entire face without a nick r' weeper? Well good on ya! I may just be making a fool of myself here, lol. Hopefully someone else chimes in.
Good on ya mate. Yes it means congratulations, well done.
However it can also be used as a sarcastic remark.
I most often hear that said sarcastically.
As in, you accidentally jump a pool ball off the table, knocking over a bikies beer.
Your mate turns to you with a worried expression. "Aww... Good on ya..."
Yup, basically the same as "congrats, well done".

I think it is somewhat the equivalent of "Bless your heart" used in the US.
And the old chestnuts the correct spelling of
Aluminium and Colour...
