The lad's as fit as a mallee bull. I was amazed he showed any signs of tiredness yesterday and I can put that down entirely to him being soccer fit, not bike fit. Still, it was nice to show him how the old bloke can work for a change.
What passes for a Cornish Pastie here probably isn't, but they are very nice. We have a strong Cornish tradition here in South Australia thanks to the mining that went on early in the colony (South Oz was set up as and always was a free colony - we never had convicts, we used to transport them to the eastern states
)
We don't see a lot pie in the shops, usually just apple made with that tinned muck that has you looking for the 'made in taiwan' sticker, but pasties and yeast buns (courtesy of the German migrants) are very strong. For me, the humble pastie is my equivalent to this forum's 'pie'. Yes, I am on record as having walked into a bakery, standing in stunned silence for a moment and then saying: "One of each please".
