    Is amazon.de the only place you can order it from?

    Roughly $AU21 for the DVD is good but $26 for
    shipping - not so good!

    When you going again -- apr 5? I hear you may make it to Alternative
    Monday yet, but it seems there is only a Mountain Goat Friday or two
    left?

    Hey, I know someone who spent all last year shipping Tim Tams ($50 a
    pop just for postage, each time, IIRC) to America for a bunch of
    Kibologists who found they like the smooth creamy sweeet sweeet taste
    of Tim Tams.

    Apr 5 I leave work. May 13 I leave Oz (& all your parties can start 🙂).

    I missed tonight's goat because my bro stopped off at Tulla on his way
    to Mildura from army in Townsville. He's going to be sent OS soon and
    with me leaving too, it could be years before I see him again. 🙁
    Figured I could miss a few ales to see the git..

    Woah.. I gotta read that paragraph again.. hang on..

    1st, WTF is a Kibologist (yeah yeah google blah hrmmf) and 2nd, $50
    postage for a pack of Tim Tams?! Are you sure $40 of that wasn't pure
    Tim Tam profit? Sounds like I'm gonna have to go over with a suitcase
    full of Tim Tams to on-sell to homesick Aussies!!

    Does Europe have anything that I can buy cheap and sell to Aussies for a
    huge markup? 🙂

    What is Kibology? $20, Same as in town. The red bit on the end of a

    Hmmm, maybe that was it. It wasn't simply that I may have confused
    the $50 for Tim Tams + postage? I'm not entirely sure he was being
    paid for his efforts. It may well have been purely community service.
    Naive fool.

    You forced me to google damnit!
    "Also, new users occasionally stumble in and ask "Who is Kibo" and "What
    is Kibology" and other such questions. NEVER give them a straight
    answer. That's 90% of the fun of being a Kibologist! Most of the time
    these questions end up being long-lasting threads with each post
    offering a completely different (and totally incorrect) answer."

    Yes, but I've found a shop in Perth that sells it! Wayhey!! I found the
    shop when I was in some shopping centre and saw a sign saying "Like great
    food?" or something similar, and an arrow pointing to "The British Food
    Shop". Like most people I thought "Good food, British? Nah!" but true
    enough they had loads of great stuff. Okay most of it was totally
    unhealthy, but it had been a while since my fix of Irn Bru, Hob-Knobs etc.
    and I found it at just the right time. They didn't sell haggis though 🙁

    26k's separate the suburb I work in and the suburb I live in. Both these
    suburbs have a lolly shop specifically catering for imported and
    uncommon lollies, chocolates and drinks. Irn-Bru features in both.
    I think it's a sign..
