    Campers might be hard to lose in a carpark, but try the other end - My MG is lower than most people's windows.

    If you have a word with your immigration at Sydney I'll bring some prime
    Angus rump steak (Scottish).
    Going through immigration last time the fellow in front of me in the queue got marched away in irons, and he only had a sandwich that he had been too mean to throw away.

    John, its a trick we learned from the English.

    Convicts came her in chains and leg irons for 14 years, which turned into life, for stealing a loaf of bread to feed a starving family. Just returning the favour.

    Default Please

    To Peter

    Can you arrange a repeat of this (I have been a very bad boy over the last 67 years) but I would not consider this a punishment.

    If you were to study English history some of those (poor people) most probably had a better life than being a resident of this country at the time. The were subjected to many abuses as workers by their employers, and it was most probably not until almost the 20th century that the lot of the common people was bearable.

    But lets forget the past and say most of us are now living in paradise.

    Just getting rid of the rain at the moment pending your arrival, although it's clear at the moment 6.40am, however, as Brudda said, that could all change in the next few minutes.
