A cobber is also an excellent lolly. Its a little square (2cm x 2cm) of chewy caramel lovingly covered in the finest chocolate. They used to be 2 cents, at a time when a freckle/milk bud/chocolate bud was 1 cent. I used to get 30 cents pocket money.
Something which would improve cooking shows from America, every time somebody says Cilatro it should cut to a shot of Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull sitting at his desk with the Australian flag in the background, and he takes his glasses off slowly and says "he means coriander".
But wasn't there 3 gunmen? They were saying before it could be right-wingers as its the anniversary of the Norway shootings.
Not that white people shooting others is any better, but I figured at least it could demonstrate that its not just crazies from the middle east. I'd be happy if we ended all immigration from that part of the world, and start chucking them out when they refuse to fit in.
Bit of an own goal, Malcolm saying she wasn't welcome in Parliament, boosted her votes heaps.
Funny watching all the do-gooders on Q+A monday night, all combined they didnt really land a blow on her. She's speaking much better this time around, I think she'll do some good things for this country unlike those career pollies feathering their own nests.
I try to write a serious thing about a serious matter, then all the usual suspects turn up and start talking about todgers. Oh well, I guess thats just my lot in life.
Oh no, now you've gone and spoiled the surprise so I'll have to do something different. Maybe gender bias at the haberdashery store, and its effect on truck drivers.
No I guess it does not. But its a process, not an outcome... Meaning one has the means to sift through wikipedia flat earth society rubbish, and peer-reviewed journal articles and other people's research, and find the actual truth of the matter.
All, that sounds more like somebody pretending to be an academic. Unless you mean an academic such as Germaine Greer, who can never admit to not knowing something. But I wouldnt really call her an academic, for this exact reason.
I think the first girl made a pretty strong impression on me, had a string of similar-looking girlfriends after that. Only thing thats really changed over the years, I lost interest in the ditzy ones. But yeah, size 10 or less sounds pretty good.
Yes, a lot of real estate between the equator and the antarctic, up here there is a Hmong community and they grow all the things they like to eat. Longans sound familiar, I could take or leave rambutans, and dont understand why people eat soursop.
Yes, there's a farm down the road that grows mangosteens, sells them for $5 a kg. They're alright, but I prefer lychees ($5 kg) myself. A lot of tropical fruits cant grow in the Southern states, and stone fruits (peach, apricots, nectarines etc) cant grow up here.

RE: COBBER ???
One of the greatest secrets the confectionery industry is keeping from the public, is that cobbers are just fantales without the wrapper.
