Vegemite is great stuff, high in the B vitamins. What else are you gonna do with the cr*p left over from making beer? Spread it on toast and have it for breakfast! Great for a hangover.

[QUOTE=ToddStock] Kim:

Any truth to the rumor that it actually tastes better than Vegemite? [/QUOTE]

Todd, tis all BS buddy, Vegemite is THE nectar of the gods! But just on the quite, and strictly between you and I, it also taste a whole lot better than Mr Bud Miller .

As for the SAS, what a unit they are . The SAS are based in Swanbourne, right here in West Australia, they are without question the pride of our national military force.

"He who dares wins" is their moto, and given that you have spent time enough with them to swap rations, you would know full well that it is indeed a code by which they live and die with pride.

Also, given that you have obviously shared their company in conflict, I know full well that you also deserve the same level of respect afford by me toward the SAS from your own countrymen and women.

Cheers Mate, may peace be the only force to defeat the greatest warrior
