Mr Fawlty
Hey did you see on the tv the owner of the Northside Studio in Fyshwick is gonna give exservicemen wearing medals free 30 min sessions from 1pm on Anzac day!!!! Went on to say that they do this as a mark of respect for all "our brave fighting men &WOMEN from all conflicts but not many take up the offer because by the time they have all raised a "glass" to their fallen comrades they are in no condition to spend time intimatley with a lady...." How do I create a diversion so that I can spend time there because as you all know for a bit of 'casual Skirt' I could forgo the glass raising in memory of fallen comrades...
Has the meaning of ANZAC day fallen so low? Do Exservice men and women feel "exploited" by this.... Times are changing and I WISH I KNEW ABOUT THIS A FEW YEARS AGO WHEN I COULD HAVE SPENT TIME INTIMATLEY WITH A LADY....
What a bugger...

I don't even know what to make of that. Except to say that, as an ex-Navy guy, it would be no fun at all unless 30 or 40 of your shipmates were there.
Can he cater for large groups?
Yep, his heart is probably in the right place, but a bit tacky to associate with ANZAC Day methinks.
Matt.

Apart from playing " two up " - anything to do with making money out of ANZAC Day is VERY TACKY.

Mr Fawlty,
Nah, pretty hard to find uniformed personnel in shore establishments these days anyhow. Mostly outsourced and run (very capably in most cases) by civilian contractors.
That's the way of it I guess, but shore messes are fairly quiet
places nowadays with everyone living 'ashore'.

Dear Mr Fawlty, I was just thinking of my 82 year old Mother who served in the Navy during WWII as a morse operator - and I'm sure, even today, she would just prefer to flirt and flutter with some gorgeous hunk of bloke rather than one of those tittivated tittilating tootsies as seen in the back of my husband's
toilet reading trash! LOL!
Dasher - I'll see you behind the
sand dune in July in
Innamincka - and you'll get what for then!
