I prefer to call it Mind Expansion Surprise! (TM). Besides, you agreed to it, later on when I take you back to five minutes before you wanted a coffee and I ask if you'd like one. You even signed this waiver here, see? All above board, or at least legally binding.

I feel like I'm 18 and stupid(er) again. W000t! Stupid(er) was kinda fun, except for all the stuff I didn't see coming. Except most of that hit when I was 19 ;-)

That's the way. People always knock the foolish, but I'm aiming to grow into the greatest Fool the universe has ever seen (and been governed by the cruel fist of). A man's gotta dream, like a gibbon's gotta defenestrate.

So, monts, did you enjoy Ipswich? People seem to. Inexplicable, but hey, who am I to talk, I drink fish. Maybe I need a Falcon and a few beer bottles. Or maybe I'm just in the dodgy end, and all the classies never come near here.

I did enjoy Ipswich, but, really, it was Amberley I enjoyed. All the old RAAF married quarters are gone now. I remember Ipswich "city" itself as Ipswich hospital, and also P-platers doing lappies in their V8's of the main shopping centre block (which I think burnt down at some stage). Of course, this was in...'81-'84. Things might have changed.

Right? Anyway, sounds like you've traded up. I mean, wanna swap, you must be missing Old Swampy??!

As some old Liverpool bloke once said, it's been a "long and winding Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band"...or something, before getting here less than a couple of years ago. Most of my life was in Sydney and its 'burbs. I do want to get out to Amberley, and take a photo of where my house isn't and only grass is.

Hmmm... Amberley - Air Force kid?

We prefer the term, "RAAF-brat".

Drink? Dear God, yes. Sleeping tablet in lemonade, side of strychnine.

I see you've been perusing my drink cabinet in the creche. No, the adult's cabinet is over here...in this lead-lined safe, guarded by angry squirrels with tasers, with the big "
GEFARH! POISON! CONTAINS ZCD INGREDIENTS!" sign surrounded by flashing lights on the front. Trust me, it's perfectly safe.
Cheers,
