I think you will find that is "loaves" The story about the "elepphants and
the fishes " doesn't come to mind and I won the Divinity prize at school
when I was 10. That was a long time ago so they may have revised the story
in a new edition.

I'll have a think about that as I throw another shrimp on the barbie and
crack a few tubes of fosters from the esky and recite out oath iof
allegience. "Under the Southern Cross I stand a can of fosters in my hand, a
symbol of my native land. Australia you bloody beauty"

Actually thinking about that we don't have shrimps ( well only in adds for
the septics) we have prawns and nobody in their right mind drinks fosters

I prefer Toohey's... Unfortunately, it is not easy to find around here in
the proper container (i.e. the 25-oz can)... Then again, once they quit
using steel cans, it's just not the same... I mean, awh 'ell, *anyone* can
crush an *aluminum* can on their head... The Foster's Bitter is not too
bad though... Better than any of the mass produced beers here in the
States... Obviously, 'roo piss tastes better than horse piss...

not sure why anybody in the States would drink "mass produced beer" when you
have so many boutique breweries producing such great "style" beers.

Notice that most Aussies don't put their hands over their hearts when
reciting our Oath? Its because you tend to poor the beer down your chest
