quicko: chasing captain crunch

No Captain Crunch here in Australia.  Or Cinnamon Toast Crunch.  And my boyfriend doesn't like crunchy peanut butter, but the other Australians assure me that's just him.  Aside from the cereal conundrum, Australians are generally ... crunchy ... enough.

I was going to make you a list of Australian brands, but, like with everything, Wikipedia's beaten me to the punch.  Here it is.

quicko: arnott's

Australian brand.  Makes what they'd call biscuits, what I'd call ... assorted small, dry cookies.

quicko: phone companies

You know how there's big name companies that are household names?  Like Sprint and AT&T and Verizon?  Yeah, they're not so big in Australia.  Here the phone companies are (not sure how they've all merged so perhaps this slightly off) Vodafone, Optus and Three.

quicko: bonds

Bonds is the Australian every household sort of brand of underwear.  More specialized (I think?) than Marks and Spencer, and probably a little more ... casual.  It's certainly no Victoria's Secret, but presumably a bit more affordable.
