I was given the image to post as I recall someone asking for an image, so I had asked around as well.
"Berry & Chung"!!!! Bought back a few mammaries! (just for you, Jum)
I recall Dave Chung's father, mainly because of his lovely stilted use of the english language. A typical conversation went like this: "Is Dave there?" "Wat you wan him for? Dwinking? Wooting, Gamling."?
Dave himself had a slightly different way with english - "Whats you're car"? "Chevelle454, 4 on the floor and a dozen in the glovebox.
I fondly recall one night when the boys were out in the Chevelle on the pull. We called into a pub looking for any talent - you know the story! the later it got - the more you drank, the better the girls looked.
Anyway, 9.45 we hooked on to a couple of likely ones. A rule we had was never pull until just before closing time, that way you didn't have to waste money buying them drinks. Turned out these chicks knew where there was a party happening so we piled them into the Chevelle and lit off. It wasn't until we got there that I realised my shag for the night was well and truly up the spout, so being the gentlemen that we were, we had a quick chat and jumped out the lounge window when the girls went to the toilet. Never been so grateful that women always go to the dunny two at a time.
How did you then fill in the rest of the night? Did you score later?
