Actually, that line is "where beer does flow and men chunder".
Not that I'm a Men At Work fan or anything.

cheers

Ouch. You're right, should have know better, I'll do ten "Business As
Usuals" in penance.

True test if you're a *real* fan...do you have their third album?

Additional OT: saw the reformed Men At Work (i.e., the touring charity for
Colin Hayes) and the crowd was more interesting than the band in some
ways...everyone from 15 to 45 singing along with every bloody song...

Also got to see Colin perform solo acoustic; now that was cool.

And yeah, Robert, it would be a good idea to duck and cover if a group of
men began to chunder...the thought of which is actually making me slightly
ill...excuse me...

Two Hearts, yep. (A bit of a confession, I bought "Business as Usual",
"Cargo" and "Two Hearts" as a boxed set). They're all great though.

Much like the Beach Boys concert I went to in '92, where > 50% of the
audience was teenage girls (mostly because John Stamos was playing drums
for them).

Anyway, I hear GridSec approaching....
