My aunt and cousins live down under. I know she used to go roo shooting, many years ago. Always wondered what it tastes like.
Looking forward to seeing some of your smokes
I was a cricket fan until this series
You never know, the tail might wag, and we bat out the whole day today for a draw
The Poms have done extemely well I must admit. They've learnt well from the Aussies
I was at the MCG for Boxing Day Test. Nearly 90,000 people there, and it sounded like 85,000 of them were the Barmy Army
We got on the turps at stumps with a few of them. Great bunch of blokes.
I've shot a lot of roos in my time. All of the meat went for pet food!
Although I have tried it on the odd occasion. Very lean like venison. Tastes a little like beef, just a bit more gamey.

Basically there is a historic annual test match series between england and australia called the ashes (look it up)
And we won it last year in england and we've retained it this year in Oz !!!
Given the legendary crap status that english cricket 'enjoyed' throughout the nineties and most of the last decade. This is somewhat amazing.
To put a bit more perspective on it. There is a tremendous sporting and 'friendly' (lol) rivalry between the two countries. As an englishman only beating france ranks higher in terms of sheer bliss than beating the ozzies - at anything, anything at all but cricket and rugby in particular.
At the last rugby world cup england put BOTH france and australia out. After that we couldn't care less who won the actual tournament (south africa beat us in the final) the final was definitely an anticlimax.
I suspect it's similiar in oz but with the kiwis & the poms.
So retaining the ashes on enemy territory is the highlight of the english sporting year - no question.

pigpete was at the melbourne cricket ground on boxing day when we thrashed them and retained the ashes (had to win the last game to also win the series - which we did yesterday). The english travelling supporters - the barmy army - were very vocal.
He got quite drunk with some brits.
WOW! Glad to see this site is going multi-national! Have a couple kiwi friends from a chat site I used to frequent, and a good friend from Oz that visited a few years back...N. Qld area.
G'day Blue. You wouldn't be a redhead by any chance?
As oddness and serendipity would have it...I was a member in Blue's sister's wedding many moons ago. Now..I don't recall him, but his sis had some red highlights, but leaning to brunette. As I recall... wow...beer under the bridge! Like ummm...20 years ago?

They're getting a bit wet up in Qld at the moment. Hope your friend has a boat!
