Re: Flight Cancellations due Cyclone
What a bunch of woosbags.
tinny and Cooda would remember the old days at the Conti in Broome, the Boab in Derby and the 'nade and Pier in Hedland. Cyclone comes, pull down the shutters, grab a carton of smokes and chicko rolls and retire to the cool room (safest place in town) where all the booze is stacked (naturally) and play cards and booze on 'til she's had enough of playing wit yers. :} :OK: Codes for Cooda: ?? := BLUE ALERT - cool room intact no interruption of normal beer service, switch card game to Manilla and raise the anti.:ok: YELLOW ALERT - chiko roll warmer goes on the fritz, beer service goes INTER, spades are trumps.:p RED ALERT - switch to cans and crisps as coolers go TEMPO, call the guy who's been counting the cards and make him drink a bottle of Bundy . :eek: ALL CLEAR – WITH CAUTION, get emergency genny for the cool rooom going, restore normal beer service and get pie warmer operational. :D :cool: |
