American. Girlfriend is an Aussie though. And yes I like vegemite. Their obsession with beetroot I still find bizzare. If you were hardcore you’d know what UKresistance was lol. It’s an old, dead funny Sega anti-Sony site. ---

Actually the song is MUCH MUCH older than that, though it seems that their version is the most well known I guess? > **[Scarborough Fair (ballad)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scarborough_Fair_(ballad))** > > "Scarborough Fair" (Child 2, Roud 12) is a traditional English ballad. The song, which is a variant of The Elfin Knight, lists a number of impossible tasks given to a former lover who lives in Scarborough, North Yorkshire. The "Scarborough/Whittingham Fair" variant was most common in Yorkshire and Northumbria, where it was sung to various melodies, often using Dorian mode, with refrains resembling "parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme" and "Then she'll be a true love of mine."

Some of my favorites are probably Venbarak (who quotes Shakespeare), Green Slime (because…well…_snicker_), The Silent One (because his is the only thing it could POSSIBLY be), Owlbear (because I’ve had that exact same question before), and Hellcat (just because it made me roll my eyes). ---

My God tim tams are good. I regret only bringing back four packs. They sell them in the US now, but I’m sure they aren’t as good. Pavlova looks good, and my girlfriend can bake. Mmmmmmh. Unless they try to stick beetroot in the cake like they do everything else lol ---

You have not experienced the glorious power of Parsley and Sage until you hear Queensrÿche render the greatest ever version of Scarborough Fair.
