Was it alive? What?
yeah, and the card I sent home read like this:
Dear Aunt Marjorie,
Having a lovely time in Australia, Uluru was very pretty, and Gladys and I spent a wonderful afternoon patting dead kangeroos. Hope you are all well, see you in two weeks,
lots of love,

I rather like Wombats, too
I grant that you do have a cracking selection of bizarre and dangerous animals round your way, though.

personally I think the kookaburra is one of the best and nicest creatures we have

And I admire his ability to sit in
the old gum tree, being merry merry king of the bush 'n all.

Kookaburra sits on the electric wire
Jumping up and down with his pants on fire!
