I have a question. I know people say Chookas to wish people luck - it's been said to me quite a bit lately but does anyone know the story behind that saying? It's really beginning to bug me so anyone who knows please . . .let me know! lol ~ Tari

It almost sounds like it could be a corruption of Chokkers. ie full to bursting. Aren't we all strange. Never use cut flowers on stage in a theatre I was told that flowers broken from their stems were all right and do not take home your bouquets from opening night. If you do you will close early. Is that all there is? Well if that's all there is my friend, then let's keep dancing. www.tonymoore.id.au
