enormoose

adj. Really, really large. Huge in fact.

That debt is enormoose! You think you're the government or something?

Is that rhetorical?

Could be. Is rhetorical the one where I don't have to answer?

Yeah.

So I've already ruined that.

Perth

place. Semi-aquatic Australian city of almost mythological beauty. Tall spires arise from the surf's edge and mobile causeways transport tourists past the grist mills and anorak factories to wide white surf beaches calm enough for the kiddies.

Settled largely by Greek farmers rather than transported labourers, Perth became a magnet for muticulturism and sailing regattas as well as an oasis for the non-sporting types.

Iconic buildings such as the South Perth Magistrates Courthouse and the Wallaby enclosure at the Banamara Zoo dot the landscape and attract the bemused stares of visitors.

The America's Cup yacht race was once held near Perth but those heady days of glory are on hiatus just now.

......................................................................................

After a long trek across the Western desert it's almost comforting to see the spires of Perth in the distance.

Too right mate. Pass me some kangale from the grubsack

dangler

............................

Did you see the Czechs beat Canada in a shoot-out? What a dangler for the win!

Hanna

place. Pretty village hidden amongst the gravel tailings that scar much of west central Alberta. Home to the Fighting Muskrats Senior hockey team and a plethora of Craft Shoppes, Hanna seeks to maintain an 18th century look to its streets and parks with a laissez-faire attitude to upkeep. The high school band won third place in a regional march-off in 1982 but no other musical talent has emerged from this vibrant arcane fenestration in the Canadian tapestry.

...................................................................................................................................................

Have any famous bands come out of Hanna?

Of course! The Hanna Bulls Marchers did us proud back in 1982.

.............................................

Can't read the writing on the wall.

Or anything else without his bifocals.
