I...I've been stealing them.

you see...(gulp) I've a...a little problem with the cucumbers. I...I've been (sob) smoking them every day for months now! Won't someone intervene?!

Nah, just yanking your chain. I gold plate them and sell them to wealthy New Jersey housewives.

At the risk of being completely controversial and alienating myself completely, I'm going to put forward the assertion that Queenslanders generally are somewhat deluded about their state. However, it's possible that Brisbane is not representative of the rest of the Queensland.

Zucchini = courgette. Just sayin' in case anyone didn't know.

"Courgette" does sound rather like a very shortlegged little doggie... or an extremely small automobile. But is it not actually another name for eggplant? -- oh wait, that's aubergine...
