Could someone Aussie tell me what a "coffee plunger" is to an American? Thanks.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I think it's one of those coffee makers with the sort of mesh thingy that you squish down on the coffee. French press, or something like that?

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

cool...thanks. Because my mom has a friend who makes beer, and "plunger" is more about plumbing, here, so...

We have those plungers too, but we're happy to diversify. I guess over here we're just more willing to take the piss plunge.

Ah, a cafetière.

Fiona,

I posted some songs from an Ian Mathews solo album on Buffistarawk that I think you'd like (Sandy Denny and Richard Thompson guesting, so it was like a Fairport reunion).

Let me know if you need the keys to Buffistarawk.

gnnnng.

We just got done watching all the episodes of Ultraviolet. I am currently stomping my tiny feet over the fact that there wasn't another season.
