VERYSTORMY Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Oddly enough when we came back to the UK I ,out of habit asked ,for a flat white and only one place knew exactly what I wanted the rest it's Que lol We don't drink much of it and have only ordered once since being back - at a little café in the village we were staying and they knew it straight away. It riles my wife as she is Peruvian and that is how the Peruvians have always drank their coffee - a very long time before Australia or anywhere else.

I was fascinated to read in the UK Daily Telegraph that Australia has a very low population density because everyone just lives in one of the large coastal cities like Sydney, Perth and...Canberra....

starlight7 Posted April 1, 2016 Share Posted April 1, 2016 Well wombat poo is square, that's true. We used to have a wombat living under our holiday house, noisy bugger when it went out at night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
