Ive eaten kangaroo burgers. Not by choice, a few years ago one of the drive-in chains slipped some kangaroo burgers in and served them for some time before they got caught. It tastes pretty much like beef, not much difference.

For anyone who knew them, they were 2 mad as a box of frogs members who had plans to save up and see the world, maybe even Ireland on the way. I guess life got in the way and i bet they are still chipping away at home. Oh well, if ye do come back girls we will raise a glass before you start throwing them :lol:

Sorry that I've been away for a bit, but I'm slowly getting use to the process of High School. We get homework which I'm not fond of (but what kid is.) Math, English all that stuff. It's a great variety and quite a step from Primary school. But it is fun none the less.

Welcome back Jacob. Wondered what happened to you. That first year of High School can be rough for the first little while, but you'll get used to it and like it.

That's better!
Nah, Bighuey's right, though. You can call me whatever you'd like, Fran. (Have I just opened a can of worms, to go with the box of frogs? Tune in tomorrow...)
And hey, I may be crazy, but at least I'm not alone... :wink:
