Happy Wattle Day!

This here's the wattle - the emblem of our land.
You can stick it in a bottle or you can hold it in your hand.

Amen (Crack two! <tisssst>!)

I drove through Cootamundra today and the Wattles were in full bloom, very appropriate!

That explains why Julia Gillard and Bob Brown had a sprig of wattle pinned to them today (saw it on the news).

I've never noticed that before, There's gotta be a way to work that into a cache name, though it's probably already been done. Probably along the lines of 'Wattle a Cacher do' maybe, I know what to do with my next one now... :)
