I was astonished and elated when lobsters (crayfish in some third-world nations) started turning up on the shelves of the Cootamundra Woolworths, and continued to appear intermittently during the ‘height’ of C19 restrictions. It had been many decades since I’d seen them for retail sale in a supermarket.
Even though Cootamundra used to be the Australian end of the mail service between Australia and England, I’ve yet to work out why we could buy lobsters from the Cootamundra Woolies but not in Canberra or Victor Harbor, Port Elliot or Goolwa over the same period.
