It must be fairly old - the skimpies were covered up in kalgoorlie years ago and very rigerously policed by bored officers with nothing better to do

There are still skimpies in Kal - was there last week. I didnt of course go in for a look :) They are not allowed to reveal all if thats what you mean, but they are still "skimpies".

If you had seen the "real" skimpies of 10 pluss years ago youd know what i mean
these days no tossing, no but cheeks no see through etc etc

Hi
I have seen the "real" skimpies and I know what you mean. Been to Kal lots of times and even worked there for a while back in late 80's. I was just pointing out that current ones are still "skimpies" so your statement "It must be fairly old" in reference to the documentary staring a Skimpy did not make sense to mel. No big deal.
Cheers
