Dan Murphy is on the web... www.danmurphy.com.au
There is normally a list of specials every couple of weeks - wine, beer, spirits. You can pick up the specials leaflets in store or download from the site
Anya, we used to buy our fresh OJ from Leo's in Kew. It was truly lovely.... But we also have a fab juicer - I would definately recommend you get one - pineapple, kiwi, ornge, apple.....yummy!
Hmm, Leo's an upscale deli...I didn't realise we were so posh!

LOL.... Just be in the lounge, where some fools are condoning the posting of a naked kid up in there, WBB being one of them 
The world is not what it use to be, and we all heard stories, and seen it on the news, about little kids having their dignity taken away from them.
Especially when it's not your kid, I don't see why you will want to post a pic like that up, about kids using two hands
Anyway...back to the thread
