Adelaide University - yes I know a Nuclear Chemist from Adelaide Uni, and this is the sort of poem he may have been involved in. Adelaide is very close to one of Australia's greatest wine producing areas so drinking song and such stuff are de riguer. And Adelaide is a thirsty place.

Australian Rules, VB, are a peculiar set of standards (and the name of the game) for a football code loosley based on Gaelic Football and centered in Melbourne, Victoria. (It's not Rugby - which is the only real code).

Three cheers for Monty Python and the repetitive use of brass instruments in both their soundtracks and other imagery.
