Star*MystykThe mystery box
Croc burgers? I haven't heard of that one. Then again, I'm in Tassie, we don't hear about much, lol!
Kangaroo is good for the health-conscious...so they tell me. Your usual mystery bags (sausages) ooze fat and grease, well roo doesn't.
I don't remember, I haven't had them in *ages* I'm more a seafood eater nowadays.
How about I put some 'roo snags in the mystery box for the next lucky recipient? Oh bummer, I've sent it already! Too late!

Neillol.
while i was in Oz, i never tried any roo, croc, emu etc etc. wish i had though, i only saw the jerky in the malls in sydney, and in Queen Victoria Market in melbourne i saw it. nice food in that market, and i got myself a hat there.

Star*MystykNeil, it wasn't an akubra hat with corks was it?

I don't think I've seen any Aussies actually wear them. It's probably more for the tourists. We're used to the flies

Many betaled thanks to Lesley W for sending it to me; I managed to fill a couple of holes in my collection!

Neilthats just not logical jim

though it would be very very cool to recieve both.
Star, no it wasnt a cork hat, it is mainly for the tourists, it was a blue beanie hat with flames up the side, which i cant find

I brought a bondi lifeguard t-shirt in sydney, and i think my parents threw it out, since it was in a plastic bag

I have got a leather cowboy hat :P though i havent worn it out over here, i did when i was in Melbourne though

I was in Basildon today - I could have picked it up and saved the postage

Quaint1Ah, Graham... If you had spotted me in town before I went into the post office, I would have given it to you!

DaveSBMystery Box 'A' has arrived safely this afternoon (after collecting it from the post office).
Thanks to Paul for sending it (I'll see you Sunday), now to have a look through the cards and then the big decision on where it should head of to next.

Star*MystykAnd they haven't posted in this thread yet

Neilohhh the suspense

September 24, 2004, 10:04 AM
Star*MystykJust so everyone knows, I had to post it Economy Air, because where of where it's going and the fact that I added something for the next recipient which made it weigh a bit more than usual, lol!
So, next recipient, the thing on top, you can keep. Or if you don't like it, pass it on. Because of the way it's packed, it keeps for a while.
And, no, it's not a Cadbury's thing, either. That would, like, melt in the box. Ew

Dobby The House Elf**New** Mystery Box, with brand new, MYSTERY GOO!
