Your discription of the floater was only missing the sheer visual effect of
the brown colour of a well heated meat pie contrasting so effectively with
the soothing green of the green pea slush and further contrasting splash of
red in the tomato sauce (ketchup for you non Ozites out there).
Cheers from the Southern bit

Grisly, gristly....both, actually! You have to remember that I'm a
vegetarian ;-)
As to your Aussie not recognizing the name...Australia was (still is,
really) a very provincial place and names varied from state to state.
I'm still trying to remember to ask for a middy of beer, rather than a
pot. And pie floaters are a culinary treasure from the 40's, 50's and
60's.
I don't make pies, but I do make beouf bourginon and chile pasties for
my husband to take to work for lunch from time to time. He loves to
watch his co-workers drool when the smell wafts out of the microwave...
