"British Sausage"?
"Australian Parmesan"?

"Yes, Minister" has already covered this ground...

Naah. The bean counters already take the variations in the number of workdays into account.

That's why, when one hears of economic figures, one often hears the expression "seasonally adjusted" at various points. (Variations in "work days" are one factor of "seasonal adjustment".)

I agree.
Form a "fellowship of the ring" and cast it into the fires of Mount Doom...

Sure!
Cardboard isn't a perfect solution... nor was I suggesting it was any kid of solution.

Edit: I forgot it was you who'd already referenced the sketch! Sorry!

I was just making a joke referencing this sketch, featuring Senator Collins:

3 minutes. Take a look!

It's one of those rare occasions where it would be better for the environment if "festival tents" were made out of "cardboard" or "cardboard derivatives..."

I've always felt that the Aussie National Anthem needs a verse that includes the phrase,
"How's the serenity?"

@hanrahan

"Rest of is could vote Green"

"is"? Islamic State?

Oh!... "us"... you meant "us". A typo...

So... the "United States", right?
Am I right?

(I'll shut up now...)

When I was a kid, my parents renovated the Queenslander (an architectural style of house) we were living in.

We had hundreds of asbestos sheets that had been removed and "needed" to be broken up for easier disposal.

My brother and I "karate kicked" to pieces.

There's more to the story, but I'm feeling a bit short of breath...

Of course the NSW police approved a neo-nazi rally....
... they wouldn't want to see their colleagues waste their day off work!

I'm a Linux Mint newbie, so, at most, 4 tabs opened to resolve a glitch.

Well, 4 tabs if the search engine used was DuckDuckGo...
... but, as much as I hate to admit it, only 2 or 3 tabs if Google was used to find the needed pages.
