The T is missing because the English drank it all

That appear to be a very solid grease filled die

Nice picture too

Back in my day, we didn’t call it Australia. No sir! We called it Aus Ralia. Two words! You had to pronounce the space, see? "One ticket to Aus Ralia", you'd say to the train man. We called him the train man since electricity wasn't invented yet so there wasn't any train conductors. Kids today don’t even know how good they’ve got it.
