Arnott's Biscuits in the U.S. (a/k/a Tim Tams)

Tim Tams are now available in the U.S. at Cost Plus World Market. This is either a very good thing, or a sign of the impending apocalypse. Unfortunately they don't appear to sell them on their website.

What? You don't know what Tim Tams are? They are only the bestest, most yummy-yummy cookies (er, "biscuits") I have ever had, and they're from Australia. They are the reason why I went to Australia all svelte, and returned as a pudgy thirty-something (that plus, perhaps, the 50% discount at McDonalds, and possibly I'm lying about the svelte bit).

Technical: update your feed (again)

I promise this will be the last change for awhile.

If you are following this site using a feedreader, please update to this new feed: http://feeds.feedburner.com/epcostello.

I have been playing with Feedburner with a couple of other sites and generally like it. It offloads a lot of traffic from the site and gives me some tools to manage the feed. I had been redirecting this feed through the Panther CDN which helped offload bandwidth, but you lose measurement data (because I really, really need to know whether I have 8 subscribers or 10!).

Anyway, change if you can, though in theory I have redirected all of the 10,000 variations I've used for feed names to the new feed address.

And if you have no idea what I'm writing about, then just ignore this little blurb.
