The old Chief Engine Serang
Was weary night and day
For half his lads were in their beds
Or under green sods lay.

It looks like ink has dried up, even he Bard of Laxey is hoarding the radiant blue.

Bard. I've never been barred. I was even allowed in the Gentleman's bar when Joyce had the Woody!

(I have been refused, once. It must have been the short trousers).

A back street pub? You're a sea front kind of man, as are Tmax and King Cod. Remain in The Woody and you'll start rolling your own.

Man, man. Five movements, there'll certainly be no problem if you want a toot or two on the tooter.

So the bunker man signs his own delivery note?

Better check on the electrickery tariff. Don't want them breaking into my switchboard to instal a smart meter (I got a fairly smart meter, the boy turns the wee handlie thing and shouts out where the pointer thingy points) .

I'll send the boy up in a tick with the rest of her uniform. I can't understand it, our cut-out normally knows how to conduct himself.

Balloons! That's a relief. When you were heard saying we were all out of puff I thought Faversham was going to have kittens.

It's probably just as well that that link doesn't work for me. Was a bun involved or just a Jelly-roll?

Watching satellite tv: Discovery, Nat Geography, Eden etc, Australia would appear to have more than its fair share of deadly beasties. From Irukandji and Blue Ringed Octopus to Funnel Web Spiders and a plethora of snakes, the list is extensive. Am I being alarmist or is the annual list of deaths tolerable?

I would say there is more danger on the N4 heading out of Dublin on a Friday tea time, you also have to watch out for highway robbers selling spuds and strawberrys.

Some Aussie bit part actor called James Cameron seems to have cornered the market for Titanic comment. But our man should not be misunderestimated, he has access to 5400 wooden pallets and will probably have a bonfire outside Cameron's house. Over here life under a bowler gives you influence.

From the Daily Express:

In Australia's outback, a team of researchers from a university and a museum has found a new deadly snake species.
The desert whip snake, Demansia Cyanochasma, is found in remote desert regions of Central Australia, the eastern parts of the Northern Territory, and across Western Australia.

Dear God is there no end to the critters down under?
