  1. Qantas, the Australian airline. Alan Joyce, the CEO, on about $4 million + bonuses, accepts a big chuck of $720 million airline bailout from the government. Next morning he sacks 20000 employees. Ubercunt.
  2. The non-linear scale makes it a bit misleading.
  3. Corporate cuntery at its finest Australian Government announces $715 million handout to help struggling airlines get through the crisis. The next day the CEO, an noxious little Irish gnome called Alan Jones (on a salary north of $4 million + plus bonuses) lays off 20000 workers without pay. That's twenty thousand people without an income facing life on one of the lowest unemployment payments (government name Newstart, commonly known as Newstarve) payable only once they have used their life savings. I repeat CUNTS.
  4. Baldiola Scott Morrison (Australian joke of a PM) Mitch McConnell
  5. Top 10 Private eyes Jim Rockford Frank Marker Miss Marple (Margaret Rutherford Sherlock Holmes (Jeremy Brett) Cops Columbo Jack Regan Gene Hunt Morse Bergerac Rebus (Ken Stott)
  6. If you count playing a military policeman in Redcap, that gives John Thaw the treble
  7. As an unrepentant salad creamite, I didn't think I would ever see it over here in Vietnam. However in the one and only Supermarket in Town one day I happened to spy some. Remia brand salad cream dressing with oil and vinegar and mustard, free from artificial colors flavors and preservatives. Made in the Netherlands. Oh fuck. One of the nastiest tasting glops I've ever tasted. If they'd given it to Anne Franks, she would have turned herself in. Disgusting.
  8. they've been in isolation since Henry VIII
  9. Sorry Tony. My rep failed, it would only let me like!
  10. 1 The Wonder Years 2 Happy Days (but it went on past its use by date) 3 The Simpsons 4 The Good Guys (Bradley Whitford, great actor and sound politically) 5 The Flintstones Not a big fan of American humour. Seinfeld and Friends leave me cold, but each to their own.
  11. I enjoyed "Watching" years ago. Emma Wray was great and the incomparable Patsy Byrne was in lots of them.
  12. You've had an absolute twat of a year. My thoughts are with you. YNWA
  13. Not looking like a good holiday anymore https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/mar/16/cruise-ships-scramble-to-find-safe-harbour-amid-covid-19-crisis-as-countries-turn-them-away
  14. Vietnam is now has cases in the high 50s. It was 16 until just over a week ago when some rich bitch flew back from London having attended the Milan fashion show and having already shown symptoms . Using her British and Vietnamese passports, she circumvented the travel restrictions in place. She succeeded in infecting loads of the other passengers in business class, tourists, who scattered the length and breadth of Vietnam and have caused a shitload more contact cases. Her friend who attended the same fashion show and also had the virus flew back from London in a jet chartered by Daddy for a mere 350,000 US dollars. Foreigners are now being treated by lepers in a lot of places, not helped by a few backpackers who have refused quarantine and carried on traveling. Saigon has closed all of the bars, brothels etc in tourist areas and places like the ancient town in Hoian and Hue have been closed completely. The borders have been closed completely to all UK and European passport holders but, strangely, not to US or Australian passport holders. The price of a 3-month visa extension has gone from $105 US for a quick trip to Laos and back to $350 US. I still feel the fucking lot safer here than I would be in the UK or Australia.
  15. According to Dr Norman Swan, the Australian medical expert on the ABC, a supermarket is selling hand sanitiser for $6 for the first bottle, $150 for the second and subsequent ones.
  16. Hard to do if you're a delivery driver or bus driver.
  17. B - side of the the Yardbirds "For Your Love". The label was"Got to Hurry (featuring Eric "Slowhand" Clapton)"
