Howdy Woof's Victims,
Yup..I spects youse has all gort out of control, seein as I has not
been maintaining youse as mindless veggies by the careful
application of woof posts..well..snap to, the lot of youse..I is
here fer a parade inspection! Anyone wot shows a glimmer of synaptic
activity is gonna be put orn KP..and..oh yeah...the real unlucky
ones gits ter clean the Woofden, wot despritly needs it!
The Woofess is only half the filly she used ter be...that's cuz the
last of her toy boys at work has deserted her:( Yup..all of em
driven away..not by her incessant and unnatchurl demands, but by our
elders and betters whose main hobby is ter make the lives of their
slaves unendurable. I spects they spends their time in this
enterprise because they either ain't gort no real work ter do, or
they is incapable of doin their own jobs.
I is sure the financial rewards our elders and betters receive when
they decimate or drive away more and more staff, has absolutely
nothing to do with their actions *cough*;)
So..all me toy boys has been driven away - Pony, Big Ben, DM (AKA
Dream Machine, cuz he is the lucky owner of a hot, red beast wot has
a V8 pursuit engine in it) and now Stormy:( Wot's a filly meant ter
do now, I ask youse? What's the point of attending the work
sundowners iffen there is no toyboys ter have fun wid?
Take the last sundowner, fer example...
There was Stormy, DM and me sittin inna gutter of the carpark,
swiggin an exceptionally good red out of a bottle and passin it
around. Stormy and me was waitin fer me tame cab driver, cuz I woan
let Stormy drive iffen he has hadda gutful (and he had hadda gutful
in more ways than one) and DM was waitin fer his missus ter come and
pick him up in the hot red pursuit beast. We had been waitin quite a
while and Stormy obviously could not bear the inactivity (he had
been working out fer weeks and gittin hisself into supreme fighting
condition). Anyways, next thing we knows is that Stormy was hangin
upside down from a large parking sign...now..he weren't hangin
upside down inna normal way...but had his shoulders pushed up level
wid his paws wot was holdin his weight and he had flipped his legs
over soze that they was downwards. This, folks, is a physical
impossibility fer 99% of the population, who is not so fizzically
fit!! I tell youse..it was a Kodak moment, ceptin I didn't have me
camera wid me:(((
Just about then, DM's missus roars up inna beast. She seez me, hands
me the keys and gits out. I gits in and roars round the carpark,
doin a few tight turns...but I didn't leave no rubber onna road,
OK?! All I left onna road was a slightly squished Stormy, who had
seen fit ter leap down orf the sign and stand in front of the beast
and use his considerable fizzical strength ter try and prevent me
drivin forward. It didn't work..he landed up onna bonnet (hood) and
I jes kept driving:)
[This lil event had repercussions a week later when DM comes up ter
me laughin his head orf: "You ain't gonna believe this," he sez,
"but there is a rumour goin around the office that a credible
witness saw me give Stormy the keys ter me car in the carpark after
the sundowner and that he [Stormy] was witnessed doing broggies
(burnouts) inna carpark and layin rubber everywhere!!" In this,
folks, lies a important fact...you see, folks thinks Stormy is wild
and dangerous and thus they expect it to be him when anything crazy
is going down...they just could not believe a gennel, elderly ole
woofess ter do summat like that..so they jes mis see things ter fit
their prejudices:(( In reality, Stormy is a real soft sweetie and
very unfairly maligned at work by wimpy wowswers, who cannot cope
with anyone slightly different to their boring, humdrum,
conventional lil selfs!]
Eventually me tame cabbie arrived and poured both of us into his
cab (he is very experienced at this now!) and managed ter comprehend
Stormy's instructions as to his address. After decanting Stormy me
cabbie gits a message saying that the cab driver wot was sposed ter
be picking up train drivers from the marshalling yards couldn't do
the job. Me cabbie was cursing cuz he couldn't git no one else ter
do the job:
"Why doan yer go pick up them fellas and take em ter their motel and
then drive me home afterwards? I will explain ter them fellas why I
is inna cab." I suggests.
Against his better judgement, he agreed and we drove out ter the
marshalling yards wid me cradling the bottle of fine red between me
knees. We got there early ( the train drivers drive from Perth ter
Cook ( tiny settlement in South Australia) and back again, on their
regular runs and they stay in Perth atta motel between jobs. I gits
out of the cab, still holding the bottle and I is hoppin around cuz
I is bustin fer a pee and not a dunny or tree in sight. Thankfully,
before being driven ter an act of complete desperation, the drivers
arrived.
To explain me presence to them, still swingin a bottle of vino, I
sez:
"It's OK, fellas, I is jes Steve's (me cab driver) bit on the
side."
Need I say that this bit of intelligence has now been spread to
every railway worker in Western Australia (and prolly South
Australia as well) and that me cabbie is now the
brunt of a lot of jokes about his reputation?
My cabbie sez he is gonna git his revenge when I is least expecting
it!!
There was one other highlight of that last sundowner....I had gorn
downstairs wid one of the other fillies at work (one wid a bit of
life in her) and we was chattin inna building foyer when this vision
of glittering gold and white wandered up to the doors of the
building. And what a vision! He was gorgeous, folks..about 6'6" with
dark curly hair and a body ter die fer! We asked him wot he wanted.
He hadda letter that he hadda deliver urgently ter one of the
bigwigs inna building, but being after hours the doors was locked. I
sez we will let him in and he can leave the letter at reception ter
be delivered on monday.
"But," he sez, "You just can't let me in..I could be anyone!"
"But you is in uniform," I sez, "So that is OK."
"But I could be jes pretending, all dressed up like this!" he sez.
"Nah....I knows that uniform, " I explains [It was a naval officer's
one.]
We lets him in and he finds he can't leave the letter at reception,
cuz there is a notice there saying that reception staff will not
deliver letters left there. I sez ter him:
"I will deliver the letter fer you personally on monday...but it
will cost you!"
It did cost him...but it was worth it, folks..me and me friend gort
a big hug and a kiss each from him..oooh...he was yummy!!:))
This event was an exception though..you jes can't conjure up luscious
naval officers orn tap...sundowners jes ain't gonna be the
same no more:(
THEY ARE GONNA BE BORING, BORING, BORING ---BAH!!!
