Think I'll fire another shot or two. These two are originals, so no one can say, "I've heard that before, only different"

An Australian, living in Liverpool (England) falls in love with a Beutiful Devonshire woman who runs a car rental agency. She decides to take a holliday and to up to Liverpool to visit her sweety. He is thrilled at this and decides to cook a three course dinner comprised of only Australian Ingredients. Most were not easy to find, but not difficult either. He found the makings for Platypus patties, Ostrich omelet,Kangaroo kidney pudding and Wallaby Wellington. He even found a jar of honey from Humpty-Doo. He had almost given up hope of ever finding Koala Tea, but finally found a tin way up in the headwaters of the Mersey.
The dinner was a huge success until, after the last course, he served her a cup of Koala Tea. She took one sip and, "Ptphooey.... fitagh.....pufhstaaat..," she began spitting out bits of fur, Koala fur, to be exact. Got to her feet,and collapsed in a heap on the floor, the cup flew into the air and fell on her spilling the hot tea all over the poor woman.
The next day, the newspapers reported this tragedy under the headline, (are you ready for this..........)

THE KOALA TEA OF MERSEY IS NOT STRAINED, IT DROPPETH ON THE RENTAL JANE FROM DEVON"
