   Heck have I beaten Paddy to the draw? Gosh, darn I’ve been struck by stage fright. Gosh, golly, gee, ummnn, well. Just to say how much I love today’s effort. Especially the Saints-no, not the footballers-have been selected. Why do I have this weird feeling someone’s looking over my shoulder?

   Eeerr. Got the Christopher Pyne T-shirt looks fantastic.

   ‘Bye

   Shame on you FD.
   I laughed so hard, I destroyed another keyboard and was beaten to the punch by Venise!

   P.S.
   Could you please get Jasper to post bail for Gus the dog.
   I hear he’s banged up at the embassy in Rome.

   And no doubt Jasper would take Baz on and win. I like the ‘whaddya reckon’ matey parlance from our PM - not that the Pope would notice or care. Paddy, yes we need a free Gus campaign. Can you imagine that dog’s life?

   It looks like ‘the world revolves around me’. Even if it doesn’t mean that, it should.

   Sorry Evan, I clicked the mouse too soon. It was meant for you.
   Cheers V.

    “WTF does basium meus orbis mean?”

    I just looked it up and promptly destroyed another keyboard.
    ROTFLMAO

    Kiss my ring.

    Ah Paddy I’m assuming the ring you mention could be a four letter word starting with A and ending with E, sod it, I’ll write it, arse?

    Morally I wasn’t too far off the money was I? ‘The world revolves around me’.

    Cheers,

    Venise

    FD, I stopped studying Latin at school about 50 years ago, but I’m sure our teachers would never have introduced a class of 15 year old boys to the Latin for “kiss my ring”. Far too dangerous - could have had us ROTFL, andit would have added to our extensive swearing vocabulary.

    Nowadays I’m always happy to increase my powers of invective, so this phrase will be most useful for those difficult times.
