If you truly know the Riverina, I have a question to test you:

What is the famous tomato sauce made just outside Griffith?
I think we have discussed this over the years. mrs oldbucks pantry berrima $8.20 a bottle of sauce but worth every cent

Picked up this bad boy from the Leeton IGA last week, less than 60km from the, er, source.

Almost $10 for 2l, which makes it double the price of anything else on the market. But worth it (plus it will last a few months at my place until my parents visit and bring the next one).

Seeing my parents in the Riverina over Xmas reminded me of how many ads they get for agricultural equipment.
I love it.
No toy ads or fast food ads, so the kids don't bother me.

Found these at Costco at Marsden Park the other day. It's amazing. You go to Costco in Marsden Park and a majority of the stuff is Americanised. Large servings like this. 3 sugar sections. Makes the Costco stores in Sydney look Australian.

Just a black hole.
I live in helensburgh. fucken 35 mins from the city. No TV coverage ??
Helensburgh is a great area but kinda useless for anyone who doesn't want to work on a nuclear reactor.

The Mrs wants to move up to the Central Coast which is even worse now days. 2 hours from Sydney in morning traffic, there's very little work up there, and the house prices are almost up to Sydney level.

A mate of mine has the same issue, in Thornleigh.
I'm not far from Thornleigh. It's alright now days except for the Pacific Hwy. Bloody trucks flood that Hwy. On the plus side they have the super Maccas. Any new burger that comes out in Australia is tested at Thornleigh Maccas first.

Wife would have known... noticed Knights stock it... they stock everything these days :grinning:

Her grandfather has family/friends around Leeton/Yanco and general area. Knows quite a few people around there..

@Hacky McAxe I was near there the other day .. @ the JB Hifi and Good Guys buying shit... oh and the Lindt Cafe... if you didn't stop off there when in the area you totally missed out.

That's quite a journey from Thornleigh area into the heart of MrInvisible country.

My mother grew up on a farm in Corbie Hill (as did my grandmother). I was born and raised in Leeton. Chances are her family knows mine. It's a pretty small place.

The Mrs tried to convince me to buy it. I pointed out to her that it usually takes me a year to use a 300ml bottle of it. There's no way in hell I need 4 litres of it.

I'm more concerned on the condition of ones arsehole after eating that much tabasco sauce.
I have to be honest. The moment I saw it the only thing that popped in my head was "if I add about 700ml of vodka to that, could I skull it?"
