Bert Counsel, that's him. Had a large family.

First I've seen him with a shirt on.
Must have been going south that day.

Speaking of agents in the Gulf...
What was the name of the old guy at Baimuru? Wore a pith helmet.

And now for something a little bit different!

From eTN (eTurboNews) at Baggage Handlers Nicking Ladies' Knickers Underpants thief terrorizes Air Niugini - eTurboNews.com

Baggage Handlers Nicking Ladies' Knickers

Underpants thief terrorizes Air Niugini

By Ilya Gridneff | Oct 12, 2009

An underpants thief is reportedly terrorizing plane passengers in Papua New Guinea. Women traveling with the national carrier Air Niugini are fed up with one or many baggage handlers nicking their knickers.

Air Niugini officials said they would (wait for it).........get to the bottom of the issue.

Nothing really surprises me about PNG any more!

Compensation Claims for Air crash aftermath

PNG Compo claim

Quote:

PNG villagers are seeking compensation over a fatal plane crash near the Kokoda Track, as more human remains were found near the crash site.

The landowners say they will allow Australian authorities to erect a memorial to the 13 victims - including nine Australians - on the site of the August 11 crash, but are demanding compensation for environmental damage to their land caused by the accident.

I wonder who's going to be in line to pay that...and where are they going to get the pigs from ???

Love the bit about "getting to the bottom of it"

Always knew AirNuigini were operating on the skin of their bums, but I didn't think they were THAT desperate.
