:wave: HI Mr Wenoopy..Yes we did miss you..Maybe next time..I meant to include
"Life With Dexter " Actor Willie Fennell....An apprentice mechanic at Farmers Garage
in Christchurch where I worked,,had a similar laugh,,so he was nicknamed Dexter.

At Peel Forrest,South Island where we had a holiday house,there was a problem with
"possums ,especially when they drowned in the water tank..Left a bad taste..
You know possums are protected in Australia ,except for Tasmania,They are killed for
export.?

Been trying to remember the other Life with Dexter characters
I think the kids were Ashley and Janey, and his boss was K G Wilmot
How's that?

:wave: HI David...Yes ,,funny how these things are kept in the brain..We did.nt know that you had a
great memory..LOL. As I said if you look at Bluehaze Solutions ,You can hear episode 47 or 53,but
it will be 30 minutes that you will never get back.!! I did pick up a Janey,a Jessie and a Clara.too.

Mr Wenoopy,,How is it going at the mansion by the beach ?..Arn.t you worried about the global
warming ? You may wake up one morning a have a paddle (yes paddle ) without going outside.!

Tim, re the quiz,,Yes I do try to be devious (obviously ) and had 75 questions ready and picked 30 from
that list..The Shirley Maclaine question was listed ,and two days later she was interviewed on Aust.T.V.
when the movie "The Trouble with Harry " (Her first movie ) was talked about. Shirley.s live in boyfriend
is a now retired Australian M.P..(When questioned on a previous interview..What does he do.? She said..
"Are you kidding "
I failed to list N.Z. questions for David. (I must do better )..

Thanks Ron
I can do some of the others - it's matter of what you know, or can easily check, on the one hand, and having to look stuff up on the other
