Sometimes I wish – I – had grown up as a Gay person…women can be so fussy about cleaning things…Ok..so there was a half-dozen or so spots on the bottom of the crock-pot when she took it out of the dishwasher…that’s not my fault…I thought I scrubbed it clean…… Y’see..blokes aren’t like that..we can allow a degree of …percentage…when it comes to cleaning things..and we don’t get upset when we make excuses for it…..Like when I said that I like to apply the doctrine of Quentin Crisp toward cleaning…: Quentin Crisp – he played Q-ee one in the movie about Queen Bess…and he said that he never has cleaned his apartment in New York…He said that it only takes six years before a uniform film colours everything the same…you just gotta hold your nerve..
Yeah…p’raps I shoulda’ grown up Gay…but when I give it a bit of thought…….nah!

I was sliding down that side panel of tunes on YouTube while I was listening to Bertie Higgins’ “Key Largo” and I clicked on an old Beatles psychedelic piece : “Blue Jay Way”…and now I can’t get it out of my head…and If I recall, there was a time in the 70’s when there was a plethora of psychedelic music doing the rounds..I can recall bands like Tangerine Dream…Hawkwind…Klattu(?) and others tripping out..but those Beatles/ Maharishi series were really good…

I remember this brickie gang of fellow wops on a big building site had one young fellow who was a die-hard Elvis fan..replete with the dipping surfboard hair-style and sidies, the rolled-up long sleeves bunched around his bulging biceps and a gold chain around his neck…They had a radio hooked on the scaffold clip tuned onto “hit radio 5KA”..and whenever an Elvis song came on, the foreman would shout out : “Down tools!” and they would throw their trowels down in a exaggerated manner and pay homage to The King with mock adulation of swivelling hips or smooching smacking of kissy-kissy pouting lips toward the Elvis fan-boy…all in good humour…and the lad would just keep working away and say over and over ..”ok..alright…ok..alright…I get it..” and even start singing along…

The acoustic guitar was in my day the mainstay of a young man’s “chat-up” line…any hippie worth their salt had one slung over their shoulder or floating around the back seat of their battered car…The many dives and squats I would visit people in were rampant with wannabe Dylans or Donovans…One particular one I got to know well..

Ah..the luxury of retirement.. Was just there having a bit of a kip after labouring for quarter hour shelling beer-nuts (retirement isn’t all skittles y’know)..when the good lady comes swanning past with the days mail in her hand..
“The Funeral Parlour is offering a one hundred dollar voucher if you do a “pre-paid funeral” with them” she announced.
“Over my dead body!” I grunted in annoyance.
Say..what is it with all these “vouchers” and “bonus’s”?..they’re just a scam anyway…and the company just drops the same amount on the back of the product cost anyway.
I don’t know about you, but I still got the “bonus 2 for one” automatic chisel sharpener that came with the brush-cutter I got from Mitre 10 two years ago..and it’s still in it’s packet..I’m gonna stick it up on Ebay one day soon.
And can anyone forget those K-tell “pull-cord” lettuce spinners –“Let’s see that action again!!” that came as a “present” whenever you purchased items to the value of over $12.50 in the dept’ store. But they were suddenly pulled off the list when after a vigorous and repeated pulling by a youth, the gyroscopic spinner broke free from the axel and the resulting wildly flying free spinning device put a family of four from Ganoo Ganoo, Victoria in hospital fighting for their lives!…you can read about it on Google…
Nah!..you can forget the vouchers and the bonus deals..I’ll stick with these beer nuts, they’re enough trouble if you got short fingernails.
