Or is that high flyer beware? From the Sunday Age gossip section:
It seemed a good idea at the time. It was a Melbourne Grammar fund raising dinner, the prize was a week in the Hamptons (the millionaire retreat in New York state) and bidding was brisk. So estate agent Robert Vickers-Willis bid up big for his table, starting at $10,000 and rising up to $20,000. But winners were not grinners when they found out the deal did not include airfares. Caveat emptor, indeed. (They're going anyway. It's only money.)
Imagine blowing twenty grand on a holiday. Where's their public spirit? Getting stung for extra serves them right, the bunch of flash spendoids. Clearly, the right thing to do would be to give the money to Tafe college teachers.
Only the most vile swine would go to Melbourne Grammar.
Right then Tone. Which poncy, sissified knock-kneed little twerp are you? Back row centre, just above the ice?

I'm the one in the back row with the most potential.

Trust me, from my perspective, you ALL could do with a large dose of go. Unless you consider "potential" as a very fetching set of ears.

In my case potential is hair, not ears.

A very nice toup it is too. Are you still the proud owner of this follicular fantasy?

Ahhhh, no.

Back row, third from the left is my guess. You look like you had some height advantage then.

That's me. I may have had a slight height advantage (SHA), but that was all. If I was to sum up my cricket ability I'd say I was OK at everything, but good at none. The Joe Scuderi of APS Under 13s.
The SHA might mean something during an MGS house match, but meant nothing against the likes of Koska, Burke Hall and St Kevs whose key players all looked as if they drove to U11s.
