I kinda guessed it stood for Spaghetti Bolognese, but see I figured it was future slang. Like VegRice or whatever the other ones were called.

The food sounds lovely in Bolognia! Please drop a comment at my blog about what restaurant that was, because I’ma want to go there if I’m ever in Bolognia.

Ah, Justine. Don’t make fun of Mr John Howard *sniggers behind hand*
And Scott! I am totally Aussie! Don’t worry, I wasn’t googling SpagBol. But yeah, I actually knew what it meant. Hmm…
The Bologna picture looks SO AWESOME, i can’t believe it’s not edited or anything. Only Rome looks as cool. :]

Erk, the USian bologna sounds disgusting. No such foodstuf would be found in the city of great food, Bologna.

Marrije: Apologies accepted. But the news is embargoed! Of course, i haven’t told my husband!

Will see if we can check your PM. Harry Potter, eh? That’s a vast improvement on our PM who looks like, well, I won’t say here. Let’s keep this blog clean.

My apologies for accusing you of hivemindness, Justine. But surely you have told Scott about the embargoed news bits?? And aren’t they then at least in a tiny way his news bits too? Mmm, maybe not.

Oh, and that excellent party person, my prime minister-who-looks-like-harry-potter will be across the road from you two (at the Sydney Opera House) tomorrow. Go check him out! But please don’t make Harry Potter jokes!

I knew I shouldn’t have said SpagBol. Now there’s Aussies on my blog! Deb, were you just googling “SpagBol” or something?

Sarah: I had no bologna in Bologna, because I am a vegetarian. But Justine ate a horse salad! Here is some info about the food bologna:

There’s no mention of the city. Hmm.
