I am shipping some stuff to Florida to meet me there when I arrive to avoid excess baggage charges...
Sooooooo....
I'm making a list and checking it twice to see who has been naughty and who has been nice.......
CJ has a bunch of you covered, and she is getting me her contraband for shipping early next week (aren't you CJ ! )...
If you are going to be in Florida, or I am catching up with you in LA on my way home), and are chasing Tim Tams (our famous Aussie chokky biscuit, which now has some beaut new alcoholic flavors as CJ has previously mentioned), Violet Crumble Bars (make Hershey Bars seem like a stale dog turd), Vegemite (yes we DO eat that black shit) or anything else uniquely Australian, please let me know as soon as you can.
Just call me the provider Oprano Version of the "Red Cross Care Package".
That, and my Parole Officer says it counts towards my mandatory community service.

Special Edition Tim Tam Hazelnut
I would sell pieces of my soul for those......
I'll trade your soul pieces for 2 Circus Invites and throw in a dozen packets and maybe even an extra packet or 3 to share around other VIP guests to boot.
I DID say this was the Blackmarket :P
Either wither way, packet for your trouble included in stash - hit me up at the show.

they are yummy ... i love crunchies too ... but nothing is like a tim tam!
You are pretty much right CJ.
But that comes from the everyday experience of having the ability to choose from either.
Sure, a Tim Tam vs a Violet Crumble is a dead bet, but the phallic nature of the purple VC wrapper (especially in KING size) can not be ignored.
BTW, I have cut a deal with the local suopermarket.. wholesale on box and carton buys (I am a good customer), so get me your list ASAP I want to order next week so I can ship to get there in time :-)

I just grabbed about 20 mixed packets but ToyBoy went wholesale and bought half the supermarket
make sure ya'all look for the giant bald man in a cheeky shirt ;-)
The "cheeky" shirt to which the lady refers (of which I am also bringing a bundle thereof) .......
Apart from content and internet interests, I also have a piece of Brisbanes biggest permanent Swingers Club (always good to diversify into the real time sex industry), and as I have said here before, I got banned from GFY (again).
All made too much sense actually.
First one goes to Lensman - fair is fair after all.
cj, beggars can't be choosers! I will be MORE than completely and totally thrilled with anything chocolate that's brought and I'll be eternally grateful! You and Lisa can bring the Hazelnut when you can deliver it personally.
Wow. I almost feel privilaged that i can walk 2 minutes up the road and buy myself a packet of glorious tim-tams in any alcoholic flavour i want right now.

Thanks for the offer Mary.
I am shipping direct to the Westin to wait for my check-in.
Originally posted by cj@Aug 4 2004, 10:43 AM Gonzo, I told ToyBoy he would be a midget next to the FFN's but he is so used to being the biggest guy at the table that I don't know if he believes me
Oh I believed you alright.
Reading all the stats as people jumped up and down about the Bellyflop contest made me feel like the 3rd Olsen Twin.
Hence I altered my own T-Shirt order to include XXXL size.
And remember, it's not the size of the dog in the fight, it's the size of the fight in the dog - I use to run strip clubs and brothels on "K" Road in Auckland remember - beside those Islander boys I was a grade school student.
Pre packed and stacked nicely (boxes of 20 packets).
Covered boxes in "Fragile" tape (just be absolutely sure that they DO get smashed to pieces in transit).
Rang DHL Express to pick up and send.
Can you BELIEVE that I need US Food And Drug Administration (FDA) APPROVAL to ship goddamn chocolate biscuits into the United States.
:grrr:
And..
I need SEPERATE approvals for each Tim Tam variety, AND for the Violet Crumbles AND for the Caramello Koalas AND for EACH bottle of wine?
If that is not bureaucracy gone mad I do not knwo what is.
Anyways...
Never, fear, ToyBoy is here. Anyone else remember "Lost In Space"?
I know a guy.....
He he.
Everything but the wine is fine, applications have been lodged and all should be good. The process for shipping the wine is just too much - seperate applications for each type.
Serge - I hope I can replicate a few of the choices I had made at the outgoing duty free mate!!
The moral of this story?
Thou shalt bow down and kiss the feet of the man bearing chocolate biscuits on delivery.

NOW they've ruined out chocolate export business
grrrr
Never thought of it that way CJ ...
The only that will explode with a packet of Tim Tams is your tastebuds
OK folks, all attempts by the FDA to prevent delivery have been successfully negotiated, stuff being picked up tomorrow. I am now an official expert in importing foodstuffs into the US.
Alls well that ends well.
You'll be sucking your coffee through a Tim Tam with the ends bitten off in precisely one weeks time.... just before I give Lensman his shirt at the GFY party.
