It's all the same as the other states. Muck as you say.<BR/><BR/>When I was a kid Mum's family had a weekender at Morisset, up the coast from Sydney. At Mt White, on the highway north, there was The Oak Milk Bar. They had the BEST milkshakes (so Mum said). We'd always stop there for a milkshake. After the demise of that place (they built a highway by-passing it), we'd stop at the Calga-Ourimba interchange for a milkshake. I think it's gone, too.kaehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05819693069445947851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27584252.post-38112208996995574502008-11-04T07:35:00.000+11:002008-11-04T07:35:00.000+11:00Some years ago, I was at a training course at the ...Some years ago, I was at a training course at the AGSM and met a marketing manager from a Qld milk company. She was lamenting the parlous state of the flavoured milk market on the eastern seaboard. If I remember her comments correctly, she said something like the 1.5 million people in WA drank 4 times the volume of iced coffee as the 10 million people on the east coast. West Australians were drinking around 25 times as much iced coffee per year as Sydneysiders. <BR/><BR/>Having tasted the muck that passes for iced coffee here, I can understand why no one likes it.Boy on a bikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14452119541546978454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27584252.post-84901590675666006752008-11-04T07:23:00.000+11:002008-11-04T07:23:00.000+11:00LOLzYou and me, both, iced coffee fans."Iced coffe...LOLz<BR/>You and me, both, iced coffee fans.<BR/><BR/>"Iced coffee, please. You don't use syrup do you? No? No vanilla syrup, either? Oh. OK. Fine. I'll have one, just coffee and milk. And a dollop of icecream."<BR/><BR/>I really hate the supersweet rubbish that you get now that's called "Iced coffee". Didn't Jacaranda in Qld make the best Iced Coffee Milk? And Oak in NSW? I don't remember, it's been so long since I had a decent box of iced coffee, it's safer to make my own!kaehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05819693069445947851noreply@blogger.com
