Anything about ADL is boring and horrible or ho hum from Jacqs perspective. That's her raison d'etre.
Much like Coldy's is weather weather weather.

Central Market is quite nice... even the New York Times agreed..

Is "innerested" an Aussie pronunciation,
or are you just practicing to be an American Southerner?

So that was Aussie slang?
It sounds exactly like common Southern speech, which I am very familiar with.
"Tork" is definitely Aussie though, or at least not American.

I rarely try to speak "properly" either,
but I type that way because it'd usually be hard to spell what I say phonetically.
(and even harder to read )

I don't think 'inneresting' is Aust slang..hope it's not, I rarely speak "Aussie". I have heard a few Americans say it like that though, which I found quite charming.
Um, you may hear this in other parts of Australia though. (gratutious on-topic attempt).

Interesting link mini.

Does anyone know why SE South Australia in particular has "so much fresh produce?"
The link said it's where 51% of Australia's produce comes from.
Southwest WA is definitely wetter and sunnier, which is usually a great combination for crop farming.
(though SW WA summers look drier )
Is distance from the eastern cities why more food is grown there, than SW WA?
Or how about SE Oz? Too many people there already?
