    At least I now know what 'bring a plate' means, on holiday in Oz in 2006/7, I first saw that on a party invitation, I went to my daughters cupboards, asking her " do you want to take everyday plates or your good ones, or paper plates, she put me right on what it means. Us old 'almost Poms' have a lot to learn about the Ozzy language.

    I do love some of the modern ideas such 'bring a plate'
    I assume the intention is to minimise costs to the host of any get togethers is it not? marvalous idea.
    Mind you, I've just had a horrid thought, do some people think it means to bring an empty plate to enable them to fill it and take it home with them? after all there are some uncouth types about

    I'm more of a whiskey man myself, do love a good malt.
    Having said that, a good wine is also delicious
    There are so many good wine producers around the world now you are spoilt for choice, I do not normaly quote but " you have never had it so good"
