Fair enough as I say Happy New Year to all and especially to to Sir Michael Pallin for x%%#@ sake for services to Monty Python or who knows what, while some such as I soldier on with little recognition! Such is life. 

Happy New Year everyone. Banana Smoothies laced with vodka, all round.

Banana smoothie with white Creme de cacao and banana liquor. If you haven’t tried it, you haven’t lived.

Quite so Red!

Anyway  Red,  since you are of the lawyerly fraternity, and I am currently a little cash strapped, have we any grounds to sue Ethan?

Obviously we will claim the moral high ground but it's just the lucre we want. Maybe we could organise a class action - Ethan has no doubt offended many.

There is only one issue we need to concern ourselves with BBO, that is, has he got the moolah to satisfy the huge judgement we will get against him?

No point suing if you can’t recover.

Good point Red but since you will be working on a "no win no fee" basis, I suggest you make some sneaky enquiries.

Without prejudice, my first and final offer is a kilo of lady finger bananas, take it or leave it.

Provided you soak them in shiraz for an hour it's a deal.

PS. P m me to arrange the pickup - we'll cut the lawyer out of the arrangement.

Watching some slow TV on SBS on demand, the Indian Pacific 3 hour version, riveting TV but the journey is a bit rushed for me, like T20 cricket. Can’t wait for Saturday’s 17 hour version of Perth to Sydney by train non stop!

Red will do as all lawyers do: string it out endlessly to maximise fees knowing exactly how much money is available to soak up.
