Holden is the car manufacturer - a ute is a pick up truck

child to park at the mall but I love it soooooooooo much!

Wow good to see that it gets air play over there.

Love that show, even been to the pub a couple of times as Aunty and
late uncle live there. His BIL funeral had to be delayed as the footy
oval ( where the funeral was to be held) was booked out for filming.

Default OT Christmas customs in Australia

We gave out Collins Street Bakery fruitcakes as office gifts one Christmas.
Only got back one Yummmm response. Rather disappointing. Had a great
Maxine card to go with them too.

Ok Sally, I'm not a big fan of "fruit cake (our Christmas tradition
here) but your post sounds scrumptious! (My husband and his mother are
HUGE fruitcake fans)

(And I've decided reading posts here on the group - that Leslie must be
the founder of the famous "Collins Street Bakery" fruitcakes! LOL
These are prized possessions here in Texas at Christmas time!)

I may have to get a recipe for this out of you! I'm especially
tantalized by the idea of the Brandy Butter! Sounds delicious!

Hugs,
Tina
