H'mm. Wilfred has just read all that and says he doesn't think he would like to go to Australia, because it sounds far too complicated to get, as he puts it, sensibly drunk.

Minsky says nothing, but he isn't half saying it with emphasis.

around here, a Middy is a Midshipman from the US Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland! And stubbies are, well, for lack of a better term, akin to Vienna Sausages. [clearing throat and blushing profusely]

And it had to be me, didn't it.

If you don't know, please don't ask. Google it or something. It's a terribly amusing show, apparently. Not that I've been. Add it to the list of strange Australian exports.

When I don't understand something you say, Ben, there's a very good chance I'm happier that way... ;-)

It does strike me that an Aussie tourist in Maryland who asks for a middy with a stubby is going to get a holiday to remember.
