The genius of Tommy Cooper...
I phoned the council and asked "is that my local council?". They said "it depends where you live"
I phoned the council and asked if I could have a skip outside my house. They said "sure, go ahead, if it makes you happy"
A man stopped me and asked for a lift. I said "you look great, the world's your oyster, go for it"
2 fish in a tank - one says to the other "how the hell do we drive this thing".

Re: Things you miss about South Africa
There is a product here called Jims Jerky. It costs $3.50 for 30 g Eish! $116 a kg! Cost me $30/kg. But its becuase they have a ridiculous law here that every batch has to be tested.
I was looking on teh back of the packet and saw a website jimsjerky.com.au and there it says made from South African spices. Aparently a guy from SA who wanted the Aussies to buy it.
Anything USA sells well here.
jelly tot have been banned I believe, but the Aussies are up in arms becuase the USA bans the sale of Veggiemite! And its not even made here any more.

We have a Pick n Pay, and it quite close, only 890 km South, near Brisbane.

Re: Things you miss about South Africa
Jelly Tots have been banned!! Why?
My daughter will be devastated, she is addicted to them.
