Thanks, friends, for your contributions. Food for thought, indeed! I'll think on it for another year.

Hello, 'up-over' Jackie! Lusy has explained the ANZAC acronym (thanks!). Did you also know that it is the name for a popular biscuit (akin to a Scottish oatmeal biscuit); it kept well (and still does -- I'm chewing one now) and so regular supplies were sent to the troops.

Nice joke, Phillip.

Cheers
