I it is not control line, but to me very interesting reading.  Tony Clifford sends the link via E-Mail to the newsletter.  It is based in New Zealand.  They are having same problems as us with the political arena and COVID 19.  One thing is that the leader did relax the rules a bit so they could have one of their bigger meets.  In the article I was reading the chap mentioned having a cup of Dilnah with a packet of Tim Tams.  I remember telling the New Zealand CL team that I was not too whippy on their English and still have trouble speaking American.  Maybe some one on can enlighten me on what Dilnah and Tim Tams is. ???

I believe "Tim Tams" are cookies and maybe the Dilnah is ice cream? or pudding?

Maybe one of our Kiwi/Auzzie friends can tell us?

Good luck finding out Doc.

Cheers, Jerry

Dilmah is a brand of tea, and Tim Tams are a type of chocolate biscuit (‘biscuit’ not ‘cookie’ because we speak a similar language but not the same  H^^)

Tim Tam's are made from 2 thin biscuits with a layer of chocolate between them and then coated all over with chocolate. Best served with a cup of coffee as a Tim Tam Slam. I sent a couple of packs once to a friend in America. She described them as chocolate cocaine :). Be aware though that apparently in the USA there are knockoffs made in Malaya, or thereabouts, not the original Aussie Arnott's and don't taste anywhere near as good.
