Autonomous airline commuters the McInnes brothers flew into Broome International Airport Sunday for a two week vacation. Adding them to the 5 o’clock happy hour we loaded the fridge with Bundaberg ginger beer and Cibai sausage, with Peperoni and French Brie for Grandpa. Guess what? The boys prefer Peperoni and Ryan scoffed a batch of Brie. (Will have to re- think the shopping list)
We’re looking forward to Cable Beach, Lugger Museum, Gantheune Point and the dinasoar footprints, the crocodile park and heaps more.
Footnote: yesterday we bought one of those caravan outdoor mats (4mx3m) and pegged it out with a sense of accomplishment. Proudly sitting and admiring our new comforting possession I noted a small dod of gunk under my right shoe sticking to the new matting.
Ugh! Eeh! Agh!
Lonnie Donegan’s ‘Does your chewing gum lose it flavour on the bedpost overnight’ immediately sprang to mind, along with the late Lee Kwan Yew’s banning of Mr Wrigley’s germ warfare chewing gum in Singapore.
Bloody hell, a huge wadge of gruesome gum. A grasping grunge was invading our space.
Neighbour once again to the rescue. “My mum always said Eucalyptus Oil does the trick”he said.
Touché! my Mum always said the same I replied, “but where to find some?”
And with that he produced a bottle of the magic oil and minutes later the mucilage of the mouth was expunged in a flash.
