We all know "The White House"

What country's parliment is housed in the "Red House"?

It does appear on a stamp.

Gary,
quite happy to relinquish ownership.

It's a bit like cricket after all,
perhaps we didn't invent it, just perfected it.

"Ye olde Lamyngtone" I like that,
same as "sponge" a good Aussie word for one who borrows constantly.

Mind you, I've perhaps only tasted a "real good" lamington
twice in my life, the rest Yeech!
The rest (courtesy of Scout and Girl Guides drives) get relegated
immediately to the bottom of the "Trifle" afters, liberally dunked in wine
and drowned in custard.
