> "...thought train must be something new to me"
Not sure where you're going on this one Jackie - perhaps my thought train is coming off the tracks?
Unless they remember their high school geology, most Aussies probably wouldn't know what a till (in the geological sense) is. The most common use of the word here would be as an alternative for "cash register". (Begs the question, why DO we call it a till?)
As for trains of thought, I think we all have those, irrespective of where we live. My problems are that there's far more tracks leading out of my own Grand Central Station than there are stations and there's no map of the network. Consequently many of the trains that depart never get to where they are supposed to, some arrive well after their scheduled ETA and others just crash into each other. I recently sacked the Fat Controller and took over his job, but have yet to fully establish the situation in the marshalling yards.
