Ha ha!

Maybe I am getting too cheap, I want the flight to cost nothing too :)
If I come up with the right reason, my work will pay for the flight, but there's no legit way to argue beer boobs and minis I'm afraid :D

I'm heading back from Brisbane on Tuesday, I'm sure I could find you a galley hagg uniform to wear! All you need to do is walk down the aisle saying "Tea, coffee, me" oh, and don't forget to wake me up before top of drop back into Perth! :lol:

This is the lyrics how the Skyhooks sang it

Flying to my hometown on a 747
Stewardess made me feel like I'm in heaven
Looking up the aisle trying to see what I could see
She leaned over and said coffee tea or me

It's BYO cheese and crackers these days! When they were saying my little Irish mate was short I thought people were being mean and picking on his lack of height, it turns out they were talking about the $2.8 Billion he has lost along the way!!!

Yeah, he must be REALLY good at persuasive talk, cos he's clinging to the job like he's doing a good one.

I was reading the other day that his crowning glory was through sheer luck never finalising the partnership deal with Malaysia Airlines. Everything he has succeeded in doing to date can be preceded with the term "Ill conceived"

Finally have 2 of the 3 cars home, moke is 4/81 build. Pretty sure it is genuine Cali 1275, discs, denim roof and seats. No rust anywhere apart from minor surface in places. Where the paint has chipped off you can see a pinkish colour underneath which im led to believe may be the galvinised shell? Im sure a moke guru can confirm.

The hornet, 1964. The interior is in fantastic condition, not sure what the go is with the twin carb set up on the 998 and is on dry suspension. My riley elf is 1965 on hydro maybe this hornet has seen some mods over the years. Fantastic condition no major rust.
