    @ Holden Back

    (Are you the Sin Bin model??)

    [Who hasn’t made a Largish Error at closing time in Moe?]

    Ha ha. Good one.

    As everyone knows Eden-Monaro (another Holdenite!) is THE weathervane.
    Moe is the Margin of Error in the pollsters’ dreams.

    Thanks Paddy, you’re right – she plays the guitar better than me too, earthquake or no

    @Kezza Sadly, no Viking-themed artwork graces my flanks, and my references as a shaggin’ wagon might need an update. Though I do have a modified exhaust that can turn heads.

    @ Holden Back

    So sorry to hear of your colostomy.
    Must be ‘orrible indeed.

    Now, tell me, which came first:
    shaggin wagon
    or sin bin?

    Oh, and thanks for the Viking reminder.
    Wasn’t it all so terribly twee for the biceps crowd.

    I lurve living in Motown.

    @Kezza nothing so sad – just the usual flatulator.

    I’d vote for shaggin’ wagon, on no particular grounds.

    Heavy metal, high harmonies, poor personal hygeine and long hair: still with us. Just now with extra tatts.

    Ah, glory days.

    Channel 7 was here today.
    Filming the wreckage of Woolworths (latter-day-Safeway).
    Bout the only thing damaged from the 5.2 earthquake.

    Coles did a booming trade.

    Guess Woolworths was insured against God Acts.

    FROM THE DEPTHS OF MOLÉ’s EPICENTRE: I knew it. The minute the lights went off I knew it. That unhung geranium passing himself off as a neighbour and who would take anything that wasn’t nailed down has struck again. By the time the lights came back on the fiend had stolen my motor moler.

    Hey! I am from Churchill, a town close to Moe (and hence we felt the tremor/quake almost as strongly). Please lay off the jokes at Moe and Moe people.

    I did hear though that early estimates coming out of Frankston suggest the quake might have caused as much as $3 million dollars worth of improvements.

    Hey, it was pretty weird, wasn’t it?

    I thought a truck was coming through the front of the house – and then the side – and then altogether!! Inexplicable, it seemed.

    Watching stuff fall off the sideboard (inherited) on one side of the room, while trying to save the computer screen on the other – and then trying to decide who to save.

    The pets, the kids, or myself!

    Lucky it stopped.
