rob – how long have you been in australia? you celtic catholic connolly commo. Don’t you know that our country people deserve government assistance for their important lifestyle.
Within months, the hotel – famed for its topless barmaids and performances by the “Stump Bikini Babes” – had applied for 21 poker machine licences, to be housed in the old breakfast room and general meals room.
Righteo, then, I know where to go looking if I ever decide to take up topless bar work. I could do “stump bikini babe”.
You, Miss, are a comic genius. With one-legged skimpies and one-armed bandits, the tourists will be flocking to it!
The average punter at that pub/conference centre will have $6 extra as of July 1. That means they can afford 2 extra beers to make the ’stump bikini babes’ look more like stumps OR an extra 120 credits on a 5 cent poker machine. Geez I’m looking foward to my massive tax cut.
All I need is a boobie pub here in Northcote, Melbourne. Why can’t my poor local inn get a $500K facelift?
The decidely unfacelifted Shamrock in the Valley in Brisvegas has topless waitresses – as a friend of mine once discovered, even on the short lived “bisexual night”. I believe Resistance still gather there – despite the ideologically unsound attire of the bar staff – because it’s not been tarted up like a lot of old pubs and therefore they think it’s got working class cred or something. As we know, for the Trots, socialism (or their version thereof) always trumps feminism!
Hehe! I could be a National Party porkbarrel princess!
Hell, it’d be less objectionable if they just gave all the punters $100 each just for living in the country.
Actually, most of us are just content with only having to pay $250,000 for a house instead of half a mill.
I am surprised that Atherton is into the whole topless bar thing.
My bet is that most people in Atherton would prefer the money spent elsewhere.
