G/day Marty,
I've known that feeling a few times as well mate; a bit like that song, 'I've Got plenty Of Nothing'
The modern version is 'Give me, Give me'

Another good one Marty.

Cheers Terry

Goodonya Marty, What with the carbon tax and a few other new expenses for the Gov we worked it out our pension is now on the negative side, but you would be surprised what you can find in the bins at the back of Coles. ;)
