... for birds in flight. One of my favorite sights ... anywhere in the world.

Pandora Sweaters were once sold everywhere, and the sign was a local landmark. It sat atop a mill building in Manchester. However, it now rests behind an unused mill, where it looks a bit forlorn.

They share everything.

Dollies, nursies, giggles, laughs, and sleep. And maybe they even share their dreams. The secret language of sisters.

Who would you take just the 'UIL' and 'G?'

Australian slang term

"Galah" is also derogatory Australian slang, synonymous with 'fool' or 'idiot'. Inquiries of Australian countrymen in the 1970s suggest that this is a misunderstanding. It seemed to be that the reference to a 'silly galah' is based on the sheer exuberance of the species and its willingness to indulge in play behaviour - galahs appear completely devoid of "dignified" or calm behaviour to the observer. Max [at Manly Vale WRL, 1977] held that galahs are very self-confident and have a great zest for life, and seem not in the least disturbed in anything they may care to do or be caught doing. It is very common to see them hanging by one leg from telephone or power lines in a rainstorm getting soaking wet and screeching with delight. There are many reports of them tobogganing down the corrugated roofs of outback buildings. A detailed, yet comedic description of the Australian slang term can be found in the standup comedy performance of Paul Hogan, titled Stand Up Hoges.
