I have had a few pm's in regards to this post and realise that my initial post , just saying any 'Aussies' that want or need anything , should have said "Anyone" , that wants or needs anything, so let me know if you are missing something , all nations , tell me , we have got a bit of space left , because we were there just 5 weeks ago , but back again now for 2 weeks , and Alfie , my wife ,will spend a day collecting requests from suppliers .
*Crickets* :D Waiting for the 'other' nationalities to start asking for bucket loads of vegemite... The silence is deafening :D hehe
Orders have been gathered , we will be there this Thursday , will work out how to dispatch the items between now and then , Tony View attachment 11195 View attachment 11196 View attachment 11197 View attachment 11198 View attachment 11199 View attachment 11200 View attachment 11201 View attachment 11202
Pat , I am guessing that you are imagining the aroma , flavour and texture of what lie's inside those bottles :D I personally really enjoy the Brown Brothers , it's not top shelf , but it doe's a bloody good job , that bottle in the picture is 2010 and for some reason was lost behind all the packets of cereal in the pantry , try and remember to give me your verdict on it after you have evacuated it's contents . Tony
I like Vegemite. Not in the Philippines currently so no need to make a request. First bite I had of vegemite was much more pleasant than that marmite crap the brits eat.
Hey ..as for mine..take your time and unwind..just throw it in the fridge if you will..and thanks LOADS. We can talk exchanges after you deal with what ever needs some priority.. oh second request..if you can place your hands on that beer you liked..pack one up. if at all possible Ed
Looking forward to it Tony. Vosse Felix is one on my "best wine for the price" favourites and the Brown Brothers have great reviews. I'm indebted for life. Have a safe trip.
As a Yank.. When it comes to vegemite.. I think I will remain the guy that makes people say *ewwww* by sucking down raw oysters Australian food - breaking the rules of fine dining excerpt below:: "Spent brewer's yeast is sieved to get rid of hop resins, and washed to remove bitter tastes. Then it is suspended in water at a temperature greater than 37 C with no nutrients: the yeast cells die, and vitamins and minerals leach out. Then the proteolytic (protein-splitting) enzymes take over, breaking the yeast proteins down into smaller water-soluble fragments, which also leach out. The yeast cell membrane is unruptured during this time, and can be removed by centrifuging. The clear light brown liquid is then concentrated under a vacuum to a thick paste (the vacuum helps preserve flavours and vitamin B1, thiamine). It is seasoned with salt, and a small proportion of celery and onion extracts to increase the palatability."
No problems my friend , I failed to mention the 3rd bottle , that was dropped off by friend who is an extremely high paid chef , that one we will leave as the surprise package . cheers Tony
