Re: Is Australia really THAT expensive?
I've been to Ikea twice ... once up in Essex which was obviously Hell On Earth on a number of levels and once here, after work, with a get-in-buy-get-out plan so efficient it would make the SAS look like dope-addled slackers.

Ikea in Chiba do a wonderfully long shoe horn - best seller here. Snapped though, mine did.

Actually after passing checkout there are lots of chocolate bars (also in the Wembley one), would always be tempted by that, wherever they originate from. Sod the meatballs in milk.

We do get a fair number of power cuts actually ... there is something about candles that has always fascinated me though, the dancing lights, the pile of molten wax ... I am easily pleased.

You'll just be glad to have got a ticket for the Test then, even if Steve 'McGrath' Finn & co get carted all over the Gabba and the batters endure the usual collapses. I failed, had an window of opportunity to get Perth tickets but didn't tie in with available flights from here. Gutted, for once we have a chance to at least compete.

What in your view is a Muslim ?
Can you tell the difference between an Male Arab Christian and a Muslim Arab.... because for the most part I cant. Some of the more traditional ones you can, but the majority you cant. So Maybe It's just the Traditional ones you have a problem with ? Who I can assure you are in the minority. I'm speaking from Arab/Muslim Central in Melbourne as well.

They are in a tiny minority
Are not in control
Are not spouting their radical shite
Are assimilating and integrating
Are not oppressing their women and making them dress like guinness bottles
