umm, yeah to the simultaenous picnics ... mebbe no to the singing ... it'd be nice to actually set a date for this picnic thing, so if everyone wants to have a think and make a suggestion (either to me or the list), we can try to organise it ...
i'll be leaving these fair shores for england at the end of march, so anytime after that would suit me to a t :)
I shall make some of my mother's celebrated Anzac cookies for the day. And bring my frisbee. Do you have such things over here? (the ANZAC biscuits, i mean!) ... i thought that was just an Australian thing. 1st non-aussie to say what ANZAC is, wins a prize! :)
then todd astounded us (well, me) quite promptly with a correct reply ..
ANZAC - Australia New Zealand Army Corps
etc etc
this information purloined from an ANZAC website as I, being a self-absorbed American, had never heard of ANZAC or the country of New Zealand before today.
hmmm.
So...ummm...what do I get?
well, quite a good answer, but you forgot to mention mel gibson (and his starring role as a fresh faced youngster in the fil-m galipolli.... ) which would have scored you an extra 20 points and a copy of an *authentic* anzac recipe. you'll have to settle for a bushmans hat with corks tied with string all the way around to keep away the blowies and a delicious vat of vegemite. if i have enough gum leaves to pay the postage i may even send you a cute kangaroo or koala too (we keep them as pets, you know?) hooroo cobbers! shelley ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .
