Our local butcher sells neither, but is happy to get me gammon if I give him some notice.
(His pork sausages are already 'real' so I don't have any problems there)

Try Celtic Koala in Brisbane - they mail order.

Re: Proper Irish Butchers
Good grief I wish I wasn't so nosey - I might have to go get me some black pudding.
(Dreamy - had breakfast in Easingwold on the way to York. Full English with black pudding and fried bread. I considered leaving the fried bread...for about 3 seconds.)

You want the Irish butchers at Harbord. Quite famous, been mentioned on TV. We've been there a couple of times for their boiled bacon. I'd go there more often but they're a long way from us.

Great Scottish Butcher
Sorry dont know about Irish butchers but there is a cracking Scottish butcher in Sunbury who does, black pudding, white pudding, square sausage, tattie scones, potatoe scones etc etc. We just cant get enough, he also sells, tunnock teacakes, snowballs, etc
Its worth the travel up there if you dont stay local

The Appletree Restaurant in Brisbane is the only place so far I have seen a full Irish breakfast with black and white pudding whilst I have been in Australia. It hit the spot!

Re: Proper Irish Butchers
So what's the difference between a Full Irish, Scottish or English? They seem to be the same to me, they all tend to have black pudding unfortunately although the English doesn't have white pudding - I have no idea of what that is.
