Shipping Future from USA

Don't listen to those who don't know. It's actually better than it sounds. Really, it is.

And - it is mentioned in the song 'Down Under' by Men at Work :-

They (Bovril) have a great ad campaign though - along the lines of 'You either hate it or love it'

Do a Google for 'Vegemite' - loads of hits !!

Bovril and Vegemite are different in taste as chalk and cheese.

Just because they look the same doesn't mean they taste the same (said the bishop to the actress)

Doh!!!

My mistake - I was having a senior moment there!! (they are getting more frequent as I get older).

I didn't mean Bovril - I meant Marmite - that is the one with the ad campaign.

That is the English equivalent (and you will now rejoin with wimps equivalent?) of Vegemite.

Either way - I don't like the taste of Marmite yeast extract - so I doubt if I would like Vegemite.

Are you coming down to Brisbane for QMHE05 ?

I have a couple of full bottles of Future posted to me from the US using USPS. You want half a bottle, it's yours if you can hold out to August.

lol Shane - who's the left bastard this year? No, I don't think I'll be in Brisbane this year - my little protest at the way you guys never seem to make it up here, despite our seniority...

As for the Future, it's on its way from the US - via USPS surface... I

PS Don't forget to keep the May Day weekend free for a trip to the tropical north... no rivet counters, FS merchants, or anti-fun squads allowed. Anyone who violates these rules will be sent home with a poke in the eye and a kick in the pants! This is a hobby, we have fun!
