Not in those climes where I have late been spruuuting,
Though Cocos long hath there been matchless deemed,
Not in those visions to the palm displaying
Cottons which it sighs but to have only dreamed.
Pete F sees a sculpture by the sea or a coward who would release their cotton palm into the wild rather than have the courage to kill it. That’s the thinking that has our sewers crawling with Cunacks and Woylies. People will flush a pet quenda too. Cott’s sewers. It’s a scene of giant tiny marsupials battling claw to claw against cunack and monster gilgie. Cottesloe.

Were they trying to bonsai the palm?

The Canuck cunack does not exist , however the Koonac is a species of West Australian crayfish.

They’re too busy writing cheques to bother with spelling.

Troy encountered quite a few hairy Koonacs ,or Cunacks if you prefer. in his travels,but
despite having a fisheries officer with him, didn’t write it up in the travel report.

It is pleasing to see the Washingtonia robusta finally emerging from beneath the shadows of the Syagrus romanzoffiana and being recognised as a menace in its own right.
