From Norda Meb’n anda Foot-a-scray

Used to be a huge late night advertiser, usually spruiked by Issi Dye or maybe even Hal Todd

Along with Chris and Marie’s nursery

And Dave and Mabel, the Sebel galahs. Don’t even remember what they sold but I know the ad was devised by the original of the Mad Men - Jeffrey Gibb Kennett.

@Reboot knew something of Chris and Marie.

Powerful Owls are found are found right along the Yarra River corridor and sometimes all the way into city parks; each bird eats a couple of hundred ringtail possums (or equivalent weight of other furry things) per year.

A pair turned up at the botanic gardens last year where they ate possums for a couple of weeks, then moved on.
