Weetabix… I love that stuff. Why? Dunno. I mean, it has the texture and flavor of cardboard. But it’s so… English! Occasionally I can find it here. I can’t recommend sending it to people, however….
I understand the Lanard Catwalk Kitties figures are available in Australia, and are fairly inexpensive. Those would be great toy items to send.
The best single thing you can get in Australia, however, if you can still find them at the W.A. Jacobs toy stores, is the singing Kiki Koala kangaroo. Kiki Koala is cute, but her kangaroo friend upstages her.
“Hello hello hello hello hello hello how are you?
Hello hello hello hello hello hello how are you?
Thank you thank you I am fi-ine
And I hope that you are too!”
Also: Coastal Hat Company “Boundary Rider” style bush hat. There are lots of other brands, and lots of different designs, but the Coastal Hat Company “Boundary Rider” is absolutely the “best” Australian bush hat. At the end of the tourist season some of the shops close them out at quite reasonable prices.
Violet Crumble candy bars are awesomely excellent, of course, but seem to be readily available almost everywhere anymore.
