Future business hub, Biffen? Well I must say it's delightful to hear from the canuck correspondent. Both you and dc made quite reasonable suppositions about the said property, however, the truth of the matter is that Biffen was rejected as a potential occupant on the basis of his poor character and record of appalling behaviour in that area. And yes Mabel ...... I did survive Asia .... just .... but have barely survived recent encounters with Biffen. My financial health is particularly damaged. Quote
Redleg 42,179 Posted March 16, 2018 Author Posted March 16, 2018 Planning the big effort for the Lions game at the Gabba. Travel on the day will be car to Tullamarine, plane to GC, car to Surfers, then walk, tram, train, bus, bus, train, tram, walk. A nice variety of travel indeed. Hopefully it ends up in a Dees win. PS. Almost forgot, hopefully a banana snack on the train. Quote

My fees are nowhere like Robert Richter's, the great defender of the Catholic faith. just ask uncle George. The Vatican would be just about totally impecunious when he sends his Pell bill. Then again, Jesus saves, the Vatican is simply loaded due to his divine in financial interventions, a bottomless pit. Sorry I used the word bottom in relation to matters Sub Judice, as it were, Quote

They have CCTV cameras in every nook and cranny flat. Quote

Do you, by chance, have a sympathetic GP? Please don't shoot any more elephants and saw their horns. It is not kosher any more. Same with hippos. Settle down, Bitter, take a hobby, learn golf, learn Hungarian, learn how to cook your grandmother's favourite recipes. Meditate. Mindfulness. Eat less donuts. Read Dostoevsky. Get cultured. Ignore the Romsey riff raff. What more can I tell you. Quote
