Aaah, Cooktown, such a diverse, tropical, multi-cultural community - like no where else on earth! I love it Marty.

Very inventive Marty. My favourite ... Lusty Lucy. Don't suppose you have a photograph?

Loved it. So many friends, so many nicknames.

A bit worried that you coupled duck-arse and sanga - something I might look for in an inner city boutique sandwich shop.

Just wondering if you have ring tones to match

Marty, you're a card. Brilliant bit of light relief.

Cheers, Jeff

Good one Marty! Ya bloody larrikan! All genuine names of course! can't see any phony ones there whatsoever!

Cheers Ron

ROTFLMAO - tell us more about Lusty Luce

Luce is a good story, as are many more - I just get a giggle when phone rings and screen says something like "Dial-a-club-footed blouse wearer" or "legs eleven oink".

Very amusing - Makes my list of names look very boring indeed!
