Proof Boyo had a deprived childhood, he doesn't know what a Banksia man is!
Snugglepot and Cuddlepie?
I didn't know either, but also from a deprived childhood!
Oh no! They might kidnap and boil you ๐ฑ
I was deprived too, looked it up and they look like they would be terrifying for little kids!
Probably a nice protected childhood. The Evil Banksia Men were properly scary! At least at the panto thing I was taken to at a very young age.
Um, no.
no banksias where I grew up, only giant old gum trees and wattles
