I would have thought that Australia was an ideal place with ideal weather conditions for fig growing, except of course the Snowy mountain area, .

Me and the wife love figs that much we always forget the strong laxative properties they have,-until its too late, whilst we were on holiday one year in the Island of Majorca, we went to a very large open air market and fruit market, one stall had some really nice small green figs that were delicious so me and the wife bought about three pounds in weight each, and sat on a wall and ate the lot,-what we didnt take into account was that we had a one hour coach journey back to the hotel again,- we only just made it back in time and it was a mad dash to the toilet straight off the coach- a fifty yard sprint, up two flights of stairs,- luckily our room had two toilets, one seperate and the other in the bathroom, otherwise one of us would have been in rather a pickle
