My Dear Readers!
I apologise for my absence this past 24 hours. The CWA were in desperate need of scones, pikelets, jam sponge cakes and Aunty Jimbo's famous bay rum fruit cake for a charity fete this weekend. Those poor Aussie Olympians need our support, what with so many TV advertisements and interviews to do nowadays - the poor poppets just don't have enough time to train anymore to bring home those Gold medals, especially in the pool. So we ladies at the CWA put our heads together and decided to hold the inaugural "Olympic Golden Showers" fete! If you are in the vicinity, do please support it! :)
Now, without further ado, on to today's questions!

In his defense, just the price of the yoyo itself more than covered the postage cost, but the local Postmaster took a rather dim view of the matter, and it was only by a speedy and lengthy intervention on my behalf that dear Uncle Jimbo did not spend time at Her Majesty's pleasure.

Once we know what it is, we do honour to the memory of our dearly departeds by doing it with all the vigour and love of two!
That was not Santa who promised you that bike. I am sorry to say that many pseudo-santas exist in this world, and none of them are reliable!
I think we have enough problems with normal cars. Let's leave flying cars for when the human races evolves just a little further.

Curiosity as to Aunty Jimbo's whereabouts could be the beginning of a rather fatal disease. Best not to get too curious...Quote:

Apart from a small nip of cooking sherry, Aunty Jimbo is teetotal and has been since that nasty incident with the Australian cricket team on tour in the West Indies in 1978. She had never before, or since, had so many balls flying at her face while drunk and the experience turned her off alcohol for life.Quote:
