Mr Bear: I’m either a complete dolt, but it looks like they have orange juice there as well.
No Christopher, I think what you’re looking at is banana-flavoured milk. 😕 … or possibly caramel …
Chris – we only use orange juice to water down our grog for the tourists, else it’s much too strong for them … strips paint, our beer does 😦
🙂
Donald: yes, absolutely. I buy it for people I don’t like, it “solves the problem” and I can’t get blamed for it!
We should’ve sent Qaddafi, Bin Laden and Assad a few long necks, that would have ended all arguments 😦
Mmmm Pauls Iced Coffee…..heaven! 😀
In answer to your title, Bearsy, I can only quote Sir Humphrey: “I couldn’t possibly comment”.
Donald, despite being a total aussiephile as you know, I have to take issue with your beer comment! Aussie beer, although with some tasty flavours, is weak as a cheap tea bag! God knows how all the Abos get drunk on it!
Shut your eyes all those who are Politically-Correctly minded. Do not read the following:
Cuprum – they get drunk because they drink so much of the stuff!
Sheona, was that not from House of Cards?
Yes, oops, sorry Boadicea, I should know better!
And Zen, I’d agree. A wonderful political drama series with Francis Urquhart played brilliantly by Ian Richardson. The full quote – “You might very well think that; I couldn’t possibly comment” – a phrase I often use to this day in my professional environment.
Yes, zenrules, I think you’re right, though I have a recollection of Sir Humphrey also using it.
That will go down in history! I first saw Ian Richardson at Stratford in King Lear in 1963 playing the evil Edmund – he was excellent saturnine baddie.

You must be thinking Queensland Beer .. XXXX Beer and all that sorta goat’s piss kinda grog 😦
I’m talking Victorian Made Full Strength “Tooheys”!!! NASA wanted it for rocket fuel but we refused to give them the formula 🙂
So what’s above the bacon counter?
If it was the UK it would be a warning to Muslims.
d’you know that I have never found a good iced coffee ANYWHERE but Australia? They are all SWEETENED here. Yuk
Pseu you get a really good iced coffee in Greece as long as you tell them NO SUGAR and NO MILK. But then I like my Greek (or Turkish) coffee with no sugar, why sweeten a drink that has so much flavour of beautiful coffee beans, and why put in milk to make it taste greasy?
I don’t understand these people that ask for a cappuccino when all you get is hot milk, a smidgen of coffee, loads of chocolate on top and enough cholesterol to sink the Titanic.
A shot of coffee as in Greek or Turkish or espresso is good for the system and doesn’t make you want to pee for the next 20 minutes.
I like a milk iced coffee, and in Oz you can buy it made up in a milk style carton, a litre or so at a time if you wish. No addedsugar or worse SWEETENERSS
Pseu sweeteners are dreadful things.
Don’t rely on Wiki to tell you about Aussie Iced Coffee; their article is a load of bull. Instead, read the article on Uncyclopedia, clearly written by a dedicated Top-Endian.
Pseu: I’ve found fully unsweetened iced coffees in Taiwan and Japan.
lol Bearsy,. I thought it was my specs needed a good clean 🙂
Bearsy…..*Drool*….my only addiction, I’m in constant withdrawal! 😀
Lucky you Christopher. Can’t find them in UK. Will read your link, Beary
Bearsy, even! Loved the link
I have to say Bearsy that drink sounds awful. Coffee with milk and sugar, why adulterate good coffee with other tastes that don’t even go together.
Coffee should be thick, black and strong (a bit like Diane Abbott)I will accept sugar for the wimps out there
Rick, I am a coffee man too and you are correct….however, when in NT a Pauls Iced Coffee is THE most refreshing thing to drink in the arvo. Beer for the evening, of course!
I’ve always drunk my coffee black. ‘Mr Brown’ is an iced coffee brand that comes unsweetened, as do, as Christopher points out, most Japanese brands. (Which, for some unknown reason, is all we get here in Cyprus.)
Poor MoO 😦

Japanese Ice Coffee? 🙂
From Fukushima? 😦
Iced coffee of whatever brand is the favoured drink of Satan. Give me an half-an-inch of strong, unsweetened black coffee in a small cup (known as a bica corte here) with a brandy in the village café to kickstart your day while you wait for the baker to unload the hot loaves.

That’s the way tive, OZ, top marks!
‘to live’ – typo
Zen – I try my little best. It’s a tough life, but someone has to do it. 😀
