Never mind, Jen. Soon you will swell the ranks of the Australians. Then you can officially be one of PSD's horrid Antipodeans. There's an ambition for you.

Back to the gutter, does a 'map of Tazzie' mean what I think it does?

And does that mean a Brazilian is therefore a 'New Zealand'?

PSD - yes, it does mean that. But no, a Brazillian is still a Brazillian.

Kaz, I only hope that I can rise to the occasion and follow your fine, fine example. :-)

I think that I could make a good guess at what "map of Tazzie" means, in the context of the gutter, but not "Brazil[l]ian"...

Simon, no doubt someone or another will wax lyrical about exactly what a Brazilian is sooner or later...

Hee.

I know what a Brazilian is (and apparently they're going out of fashion, and we will all soon be making colourful patterns instead) but am still a bit at a loss about the map of tazzie...

OK I won't bother sending you the email I've been putting together with numerous photographic attachments for illustrative purposes then...

I'm not entirely following all this, but I do get a very strong feeling that the product I originally recommended at the top of this thread simply hasn't been working for certain people. ;-)
