    For our Antipodean members I would draw attention to an item in my evening newspaper headed "Topless pub ' insult to our troops.' " It would appear that the Kersbrook Tavern in Adelaide plans to introduce topless barmaids on Australia's rememberance day as a boy's treat to boost business. Veterans have said it is an affront to Anzac Day's annual national memorial to the fIrst World War. What are the members views on topless barmaids?

    I don't see a problem with it at all. Will there be a topless lawnmower race afterward?

    Of course I would like a view.

    Soldiers object to topless barmaids!? What is the world coming to?
    I'm sure the young soldiers wouldn't object.

    If any of the members are in Adelaide on Anzac day and don't which of the city's pubs is the Kersbrook Tavern, it will be the one with a two mile queue outside.

    I was just thinking that! A bit of tenderloin grilled to perfection, a loaf of homemade bread, a wee bit of salad smothered in Italian dressing and french-fried onions . . . my mouth is watering already.
    PS- somebody throw a few pounds of sweet corn out back for that pesky little deer, and make sure nobody bothers him for a few weeks.
