Brett, are their films shown outside Japan?

home grown bananas - yum!

we've had a great lack of bananas since the last cyclone season when 95% (?) of the Oz banana crop was wiped out early 2006 by Cylone Larry. In the last few months bananas have been creeping down from the very high prices caused by this scarcity.

I very carefully managed my stash by having half a 'nana in my porrige rather than the usual full one, & recently was able to top up my supply when they got back to a few $$s a kilo. During this scarcity a friend was giving her excess home-grown bananas away to other folks without realising I could have helped her out!!
