Sisters are habitual teasers Heather and I copped many a flogging because of them, Oh just remembered Dad Yelling " Don't hit your sisters you will give them breast cancer " !!!!!!

My old man was a tough old rooster but I can tell you we kids behaved ourselves ( well most of the time ).

I can still remember when i got caught drinking in the old pub out at Kabra, I had to get home quick cause the bloody copper knew dad and said he was going around to tell him what I was up to and i was just hoping i could get there first.

Mind you I was 20 at the time.
