If you produce none, then you are not between a type 1 and 2. You are a 1.
And you would need to take insulin with each meal.

Doesn't work for type 2's! And it is no longer used. As I said... Hasn't
been used for years.

Because most of us here don't use insulin.

A type 2 who is a child is still a type 2.

Did you go to the link.

And I tend to think of South America as being in the
Americas:-)

So you take a piece of beast and call it barbecue. I see... I think Wink

It's also a noun as well here. The device you cook it on is also called a
barbecue Wink

I have friends who went to that and came back with
favourable reports.

However, whenever you travel to places dependant on tourist
income the pressure to meet American Tourist's tastes may
lead to the cuisine being more American than Australian - or
unrepresentative of our usual fare. You will find that the
number of Australians eating things like kangaroo or
crocodile is about the same as the number of USAians eating
elk or alligator.

A post-script.

I've forgotten whether it's you or Martha or both who are
going to Melbourne. As you are interested in food on your
trip, one experience I've had lots of good reports on is the
Melbourne Tram restaurant.

It trundles around the suburbs while you eat.

A regional variation as we discussed. here it is both. A
barbecue is the thing we leave out in the backyard to cook
on; usually using charcoal or LPG. To barbecue is to cook
over an open flame or coals.

My sentiments exactly. I always wanted to travel, but there
was always something in the way - responsibilities,
finances, family, you know what I mean. So apart from some
quick trips with the RAAF I hadn't travelled as I wanted to.

Then in 2002 the doc told me my blood was more interesting
than most people. When I got home from the appointment I
told SWMBO that I was now retired and I was going around the
world and invited her to join me. It was much later in the
day I told her what the doc had said.

Since then: RTW1 March-August 2003, Fiji 2005, NZ Feb 2006,
RTW2 March-July 2006, now planning RTW3 for next March. And,
of course, wandering in Oz in between. So much to see and
experience, so little time:-)

Carpe Diem.

Cheers, Alan, T2, Australia.
