How come so many Americans are posting on the Aussie ebay boards now?

[daydream**believer]

Have your ebay chat boards been shut down?

Are your ebay boards boring?

Genuine question. Not having a go at anyone. Just wondering why its happening all of a sudden

I had found season ticket stubs at my folks' house from the late 1940s.  Sold them on eBay for a good sum.  Even had 1 playoff stub that alone went for over $50.00!

I think lots of folks like it thin.  True Italian pizza is thick crusted...very similar to french bread.  At least that's how my grandmother made it and she was from the boot of Italy (Calabria).

my grandparents were from there too.

pepe,  mafia from that area, yanno. 🙂

yep i know, so don't mess with us!!!

pepe, my grandfather was a garbage collector after he arrived in America.  You've heard about the garbage collectors, right? 🙂 

I once asked my mother what her dad did for a living and she said it was none of her business.  It's like something out of the Godfather.  LOL

your grandpa is bada$$!!   lol

You're the first person I've ever heard of who doesn't like pizza.   I promise to stop posting gross pictures.

I don't mind a margherita with fresh tomato every now and then.

But it's because of the handling of the different meats

 I tend to get a touch of food poisoning from the cured meats.

(I only eat vegetarian pizza, when I do eat them) 

And, lol,  how will you know what I consider gross.

Thank you for your concern

Blackhawk memorabilia his really hot right now with the team winning the Stanley Cup in 2010-13. Plus there's no better looking sweater in sports than the Blackhawk jersey.

Really.... There should be no such thing as a vegetarian pizza 😉 🙂

How do 'Strines pronounce "scone"?  I learned with a short "o", rhyming with "don"...........most Americans pronounce it like "own", and American "scowns" are nothing like those I ate in Oz..........

Oz scone.........

American 'scown".........

[imastawka]

It's  skonn.   Best I can do      rhymes with bon

We usually have them with jam and cream - Devonshire Tea

 

[j*oono]

Here it is pronounced as scon short o sound. Like bon as Stawka said. Where I came from in England it was pronouned with a long o sound like loan but other parts of England pronounce it the same way as in Australia.

have you tried it with sunflower kernals baked into the crust? or as a topping,

[imastawka]

Joanie, to do that, I would have to make them myself.

Not that keen
