Explains why those antipodeans get the hump when asked if their ancestors paid for their passage or had it supplied free. (Actually if I were a tad younger and my wife more agreable I think I'd try to emigrate there so please take this in the right spirit.)

Why no mention of dead sheep parts? Or since it's the most widely consumed meat in the world, dead goat parts?

Mmmm! Goat curry, roti, plantain, sweet potatoes, fresh mangos. Good rum and lots of time in the sunshine.

    Obviously didn't want to upset the New Zealanders ;-)

    And speaking of goats ... a friend of mine was recently accused of having made love to a goat ... but it's not as bad as you might think. (His wife was accused of acting the goat.)

    Hear hear! My brother, bless him, is roasting a lamb for Thanksgiving. I only hope that, this time, he remembers that the lamb goes on the spit, not vice versa.
