Erin, you and I have something in common. I wish to be a media journalist! Best thing about being Australian? Milo. Mmmm

I'm a shocker when it comes to Milo, I just have like, 5 spoonfuls and eat it.

cool... making a mental note... which i will soon lose... a milo cough = you shove too much milo in and the dryness of it tickles the back of your throat and you need to cough, but you can't do a proper cough because you have a mouthful of milo... so you cough with your mouth closed, lips pursed... but ultimately end up spraying anything within a 2 metre radius with milo... no??

OH YEAH! Such a classic Aussie Milo moment.
Are you a Jared girl?

Yep, as Mad said, I'm Leah, live in Geelong and have the most Australian job known to the population - I work at Target. *facepalm* Milo coughs are the worst, especially when you tip the Milo over some Vanilla ice-cream and you're too impatient to let the Milo seep in with the ice-cream...

Thanks, Erin. Best Aussie rock band I've heard is Perfect Fit, their old stuff was phenominal.

Not a Jared girl? Oh well, my company makes up for that I think. ;-)

You'll probably have me turned by the end of the sixth page... I'm indecisive and change my mind A LOT!!
Leah, I haven't heard of them! I'll check it out at JB HI-FI tomorrow or the next day... thanks for the heads up!!

So true! Tim Tams are so unhealthy, they don't sell them in America, so I've heard.
Time Tams rule!

I can't believe they don't sell Tim Tams in America! Hi, behindthefringe, I don't believe we've met.
Ah, I remember when Hugh Jackman was on Oprah (WOLVERINE! Woo!) and he called them bickies(sp?)! I was so proud to be Australian at that moment.
Behindthefringe has reminded me of that little cartoon 'Beach'd Az'. God, I love that.

Hey it's Leah isn't it? Hi, im Lucy or Lu (or whatever...) That cartoon name is rattling round my brain now, sure it rings a bell but cant picture it, hmm, a job for google... Was gunna say do any of you guys remember reading The Secret Diary Of Kylie Mole when you were at school? I can vaguely remember random bits, mostly that she used to say 'pash' and 'spewin' a lot, hehe

They do sell Tim Tams in the US. Go to World Market. They're called Arnott's Originals but believe me, they're Tim Tams! You can get Mint Slice there too. www.worldmarket.com/home/index.jsp

Hey Rory You guys are really making me want TimTams so bad now. They sell em where I work too but they're stupidly expensive and just not the same when they're not all gooey from heat. Saying that they sold some off awhile back for like 60p a pack (they were about to expire) ...so I bought about five packs
