Last week, the Governor General, Quentin Bryce, returning from visiting flood-ravaged Bundaberg, disembarked from her official RAAF flight at Canberra Airport, carrying a small piglet under each arm. Her ADC, a bright, young Army officer, there to greet her, came to attention, snapped off a salute and said: "Welcome back, Ma'am. Nice pigs." The Governor General replied: "These are not just pigs. These are authentic Burnett River Razorback hogs. I got one for the Prime Minister, Julia Gillard and one for Kevin Rudd, the former Prime Minister." The ADC, still at attention, smiled and said: "Excellent trade, Ma'am."
