Chibs, not Chips

JW's 117 is VH-IME, which is on long term lease for EMS in Sydney, IIRC. Sorted in JW's favor many moons ago.
Since Mr Chibs was sponsored into Oz by Jayrow many years ago, I'd be very surprised if residency would be an issue.

B Rees is on the Airdesk this weekend: nothing will be tasked that costs money, unless his personal favourites are called. More than one BK sitting idle in Melbourne available for call (three?), it would take an Act of Parliament to get him to task non contract machines
