OFF THE RECORD
ONE local has discovered a buff and polish can cause pains in the hip pocket. A full car detail at a local shopping centre seems to be a little quiet and one would guess it is due to the cost of the clean. A certain busy gent didn’t inquire about costs when he dropped his car off. On his return a few hours later he was being stung with a $350 charge – the standard price it seems. Safe to say he won’t be returning and will request quotes in the future.
SPEAKING of high prices, one venue has locals up in arms over the price of fish and chips. With limited access to other food and beverage outlets, the classic takeaway meal could leave your wallet a lot lighter, especially if you are a family. A family chips is almost $19. One customer asked for tomato sauce to go with his expensive chips, however, you guessed it that was extra charge. Yikes!
SOME Main Beach residents have been copping an eyeful this week. A host of tight buns have been spotted on Tedder Ave and surrounding streets in the small hours of the night. Cashed up parents with apartments in Main Beach have let their little terrors spend time in their holiday apartments for Schoolies. The liquored up schoolies have been heading to Tedder Ave tempted by late night pies from the Main Beach bakery. Every time some nosy Mrs Mangel hears heckles and cheers, they scurry to their balconies to hopefully catch a glimpse of young men doing nudie runs through Main Beach. From all reports, this almost nightly event is a show not to be missed. Bottoms up!
DRESSED in designer gear from head to toe and with attitude galore this dame plopped her behind in a seat at a recent swish gala ball. With her nose in the air and no effort to introduce herself to anyone, she quickly downed plenty of sauv blanc to make use of her complimentary ticket. Once missy was served her food, there was to be no waiting for others to receive their meals. She simply started immediately ploughing into the gala tucker with less class than a two-year-old sitting in a high chair. Not only that, she refused to use a knife and just stabbed away at her food with a fork while chewing and devouring it like Chewbacca from Star Wars! You paid enough for those oversized lips so at least treat them with respect and use a knife … and fork. When the offending female finally left the table to use the restroom, the table chatter was simply scandalous as the guests chatted about her lack of respect and manners. Next!
