I have to say, Patrick Neary, you have absolutely made my day. Here I am avoiding doing what I need to do or I will be in big trouble, and what do I find only the funniest post in a good while. Thank you so much. Your little levity goes a long long way!

You seem to be a good person to ask: with all the eucalyptus trees, where are the koalas?

Ah, the lost koalas of northern Spain. They used to travel in vast herds across the Meseta, eating eucalyptus to their hearts' content. Then the Spaniards determined how tasty they were, morcilla de Burgos was born, and the herds were no more. A very sad but delicious story.

Quite a story. I'm still going to stay on the look out for "drop bears". Just maybe...
