Man, I need to come to Australia! It's almost like how the Eskimos have 12 different names for snow depending on what kind it is! A pony or a butcher would just be a waste of time methinks.

Down here in “Beer Talk” a 20oz Pint  is called a Pint!, then you have, a 15oz Schooner, a  10oz Pot or Middy, a 7oz Glass or Butcher and a 5oz Pony. I'm a Schooner Man myself :-D

Ha, draughts are something served in pint glasses around here.

Pretty sure what we call "Draughts" is the same game as "Checkers"

Thanks AGP. One of them never held cookies or biscuits but was a game box. What do you call Checkers down there?

Definitely some Cookie Tin (or Bickie Tins as they're called down under) Uke builds now on the "To Do List"
