Safety in numbers. Big political rally. Through car park. Faithful Trinity scarf over face.

Up stairs. Door marked PRIVATE. Stay, stay, stay, SIT to Breakfast the Dog.

Through the door. Thunderous applause. I am on stage. Man beckoning me to microphone. What party is this? What can I say?

These are dangerous times.

NOW A BIG WELCOME…Please be upstanding to welcome our next VIP,
Mister….

Gordon Bletchley MP, Member for Parkes. Thank you for the applause.
[This is going to be a tough one.]

Bill O’Slatter,
Thanks for asking.
Try Do is running down the highway.
A copper is out cold.

If you insist on the familiar, it is Ginge-O.

Best wishes. Cannot pause as this is an emergency.

Hello there Mr O’Slatter….wonderful words of encouragement to our poor old The Ginger Man. I know he’ll come good….I just KNOW he’ll come good. I suspect he is the Bi-Polar spy who comes in and out of the cold….
He can sit by my radiator any time……KJ

“A Leeton, like Kerry Packer’s Bond, comes only once in a lifetime…”
Leeton is like the magic pudding and the back door (the most important door in the ABC) to Radio National. A palace of spiritual, physical and mental refreshment – after which you can attack those war plans with renewed vigour.
You won’t have to pay any bond Ginge and you can type while listening to the stereo.

There’s a thin red line, you know.
And above fly Old Faithful and the Southern Cross which are twined together in preventing blood being shed in Iraq, Afghanistan and in the future Gaza.

Greek and loving it……..

There are other types.

People who use the word ambience to describe everything.

Women who comment about the nature and quality of every morsel going through their teeth.

Old guys who are convinced they are still chick magnets.

Chicks who are magnetized by them.

People who say it’s not as good as last time we were here.

Morning tea at the XYZ, formerly ABC Child Care Centre.
Gave the children a little story before their Beddy Bye Time:

…And the Big Bad Policeman said to the Cheeky Chinaman.

Come down, Cheeky Chinaman.

But the Cheeky Chinaman would not come down…..

Come down, come down, come down Cheeky Chinaman!

Still, the Cheeky Chinaman would NOT come down.

So the Big Bad Policeman pulled the rope to Bring Down the Cheeky Chinaman.
He huffed and he puffed and he pulled and he pulled………

And he brought down the Cheeky Chinaman.

The Cheeky Chinaman fell on the Big Bad Policeman.

And he ran away. He was Still Cheeky, that Cheeky Chinaman.

Dear Bill O’Slatter.

Thanks for asking. But nutrition is foremost, not crypto.

Have you forgotten that I have slept in a tree in Leeton, opened the Hill of Beans and had many adventures, and went to the dervish monastery?

A Leeton, like Kerry Packer’s Bond, comes only once in a lifetime.

Useful new terms and phrases picked up over the summer break. Some I have still to work out what they mean so if anyone can help out I'd be grateful. Dipping the Sheep. Used by a bloke from Canberra at a camping ground in describing why he was late emerging from his tent in the morning. He was dipping the sheep!!!!????? Man taster. My cousin introduced one of her female friends to me at a BBQ as a man taster. I think this one needs no explanation. Penguins. This party is full of penguins says a bloke to his mate in a disgusted tone. Penguins are excitable women who are acting as if they are single BUT they have, in reality, left their male partners at home to look after very small children instead (male penguins sit on eggs in freezing conditions till they are hatched whilst female penguins go swimming in warmer waters). Feck off. Not new of course but found this very useful over the break. KJ: Greek and loving it.....May I appraise you?......old sea lions (authentic single women with whiskers, big teeth and slippery bodies) HATE penguins with a passion.

Outside The Last Post Motel I said to my companion as I gazed at the Flag fluttering from a huge flagpole: Do you think you could climb up and get it ?
Predictably, he said:
Try Do.
