You need the character in picture three. I thought you & John might enjoy a change from milkshake lady
Hi Pen,
I was particularly taken by the "
girl next door with a cheeky sense of humour" look. She probably looks the same today at 22. Your alternative lady has a beauty that has stood the test of time. I have seen recent pictures of her at 86 and she looks great and many years younger than 86. I also appreciated John's anonymous lady with the "
French Maid" look which he claims to have sought out for me. - Thanks, John. Pen, I believe you don't have to be a voyeur to appreciate true beauty.
I was kept reasonably busy yesterday. I had a trip to the airport at lunchtime to wave Andrew off back to Canberra and another trip later in the afternoon to wave the Cleveland mob off to Cairns for a week's holiday. We had a family morning tea to get together. In the evening I was chasing a cane toad around the back yard with a faulty can of HopStop® to wave him off humanely. For whatever reason, we have seen more cane toads here in the last week than we have seen in two and a half years.
In Australian cricket terms, I understand whites are commonly referred to as creams.
Pen, I guess you’ve heard about the Australian Drop bears and how dangerous they are. The problem is that they are a protected species so you can’t just shoot them.
Blue decided he could make a fortune as a Drop Bear remover, and he put an ad in the yellow pages.
A man in the Aussie Outback (let’s call him Digger) wakes up one morning to find a deadly Drop Bear on his roof. He looks in the yellow pages and see Blue’s ad, and he sends for Blue.
In due course, Blue arrives and gets out of his van. He's got a ladder, a cricket bat, 12-gauge shotgun, and a mean heavily-scarred old pit bull.
"
What are you going to do?" Digger asks.
"
I'm going to put this ladder up against the roof, then I'm going to go up there and I’ll knock the bastard off the roof with this cricket bat. When the bear falls off the roof, the pit bull is trained to grab his testicles and not let go. The bear will then be subdued enough for me to put him in the cage in the back of the van."
Blue then hands the shotgun to Digger.
"
What's the shotgun for?" asks Digger.
"
If the Drop Bear knocks me off the roof, shoot the bloody dog."
