What happened?? Did they deport you, Dyso??

[Donny]

Hey, Dyso, same here !!

Driving back from Brisburg, I heard on the news Gilly was 150 not out but couldn't get the bloody broadcast.

My son (not into cricket) wondered at my frustration and asked about it. I said something like, "Gilly has a chance of the world record here and I can't find the game on this bloody radio!!"

All I can say is that those Queensland coppers ain't what they they used to be if you lasted a week there without getting the big A.

Dammit, they used to be some of the best bloody coppers you could buy.

Mind you, i got breath-tested twice driving back in the early hours of Jan 1. But i was sober as, so i couldn't put your theory to the test!
