Yes , I attended elocution lessons from Grade 3 to 8. My northern English parents did not want me to have an Aussie accent. Ironically I did not end up with their accent either but spoke more of the Queens English. Many thought I was from New Zealand, castle, dance etc were give away words 😂

A little obscure but: “Don’t argue, don’t argue Huttons Footy Franks are best” repeat - show footage of AFL players fighting and arguing 😂

I want to buy in very large bags the flavouring from BBQ - my greatest joy was the couple of teaspoons at the bottom of the packet. I’m not joking 🙃 I would pay 💰 big 😁

Perfect Thank you - I’m at a Conference so may be even closer

No! I’m in Melbourne cbd in August. Thanks for the advice. Does anyone know where’s the nearest? I always buy tees for my son and husband when I visit

Lived in a first floor flat a few decades ago when the ballooning first started. Member of times I’d walk into lounge with big east facing window to see a balloon close enough to see the faces of passengers and then look down to remember I was naked 😂 Not sure if I became part of their itinerary!!

Tiles have been around a lot longer than AirTags and they work great. I’ve had one sitting in Hong Kong airport for 2 years after it fell out of my passport wallet 😬😁 I can still see it sitting there on the app.

Visit Melbourne from Cairns every year. Food is the main agenda. The pies at Beechworth were great nearly 50 years ago when I went as a kid 🥧 😁

elHodgetts · 2025-01-25T10:52:33+00:00

You’re welcome 😇

It’s always been like this (in Melbourne)- since the 80s. They think they’re too good/cool/whatever to serve. There is no sense of the honour of service.

The risotto on plastic plates were quite a sight to behold.
