Thanks, that's one great tune.
There's several other reminders of the fact that I'm getting old on the right side "related" box too.
Good times.
Regards

^Saw that, but I was way too scared to click  . If that's what I think it is (won't click no matter what) the little people on that vid used to annoy the crap out of me.
My God those videos bring up memories.

I enjoy playing the bassline to Land Down Under. It's kind of hypnotic. Go ahead - give it a try!

I checked on their website just now and they don't). there was a grocery store here that had it once, but I never tried it.
It's available under the brand names Marmite and Vegemite. They are BOTH MADE OF YEAST.

| Incorrect. Marmite is the one true spread for men of distinction. |

I've seen Marmite for sale at Whole Foods over here, and if you've got a British/Irish shop anywhere nearby, they'll nearly always have it.
In Britain, opinion is strongly divided over Marmite - you either love it or hate it. But I've never met an Australian who didn't love Vegemite.  | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
