G’day, my name is Shorty.

Shorty Glanville from Cairns in tropical Far North Queensland   (F.N.Q.).

I’m from down under in, Oz-tray-lee-A

I’m often stirred, but never shaken.

Started out in the contract cleaning business in Perth, West Australia back in ’71.

Saw the light about 12 years ago, and now only do carpet, upholstery, & related cleaning, protection and restoration.

Been married to a wonderful Filipino, (Delia), since ’82, she’s got a sense of humour, she married me.

Those that get to Connections04 in Lost Wages will probably meet us both there.

Our business is called Get Shorty Upholstery Care.

(If anyone sees Little Danny, let him know the ORIGINAL is in town).

Love the tropics, hate the cold, unless it’s in a can or glass.

I’m nothing like the crocodile man. W.Y.S.I.W.Y.G.

Cheers,

Shortwun.

Word of advise, change your aviator it is the same as Superglide Ken's and when I see it I tend to pass by what he is saying.

There you go guys.

Our Aussie flag, very similar to Mother England's Union Jack.

Wonder how many of us can recite 'Rule Britannia', and for those of us, outside of blighty, 'God Save The Queen'.

Just a couple of things that popped into the grey box, when I think of what we learnt when I was growing up.

ADWAR, you had me going there mate, I was flying high with that Aviator bit, until I figured, uh-huh, avator.  Although I am kinda partial to the feng shui thing, I also like sharks better than pirhana's.

Danmarck, there's your link to Connections04 in Lost Wages, sorry, Las Vegas.

High heels Dougy, eh??

Didn't I see you in The Rocky Horror Picture Show??  

Just come back from a bonzer feed of bangers 'n mash, and a few pints of Newcastle Bitter, (Brown Ale), down at the *ock 'n Bull.         

OOOOOops, I just got edited, but that is the name of the Pommie pub, that I go to.  

It's world famous. 

Hope I haven't said the wrong word again.

It's not a derogatory term down here.

Cheers,

Shortwun.
