so back to the topic.. HERB..

Yes indeed ... but a final comment on the buxom Brynne from me.

To be perfectly honest I always felt a certain protective instinct towards Brynne. I thought she showed commendable character and guts to venture out into the lime-light on the arm of that hideous little creature with the boot-polish in his hair ~ and just be herself.

Her attitude was 'to hell with the gossips and the razor-tongues of the social pages in the tabloid press, I'll be just who I am'.

She entered 'Dancing with the Stars' and a whole host of other public events with an easy-going manner about her, and a total lack of pretentiousness that I thought was admirable.

and you thought the boobs were all natural as well didnt you????....she loved attention n o matter how bad...

like Lara being talked about is being what they are famous for..and any talk is...... well talk is it????

they find it hard to know what is good talk and what is not so good talk...so all they see is...their name and pic.. n othing else matters..as long as their bum looks ago...and the celulite is airbrushed.

Reply #183 - Jan 17^th, 2014 at 6:23am I'm sure Edelstein gets good value from his young wives and they in turn get some celebrity status. Each to their own. It's a bit similar to those middle aged men who traipse over to the Philippines and buy themselves a pretty little wife. Those girls earn their ticket to a better life here.

They also end up as good house-keepers a la Zsa Zsa Gabor.

Pick them old and with a thick file at their GPs, and simply wait for the inheritance.

No fools like old fools.

There are plenty of deserving widows in Australia who could do with the company and the inheritance.

I've read some horror stories about single and divorced Australian males bringing over Russian women as mail order brides ~ only to be cheated out of house-and-home, and with Russian mafia heavyweights already living here making sure the duped suitors don't make too much trouble.

The trick is for these Russian women to have a baby here ~ and that's when the poor suckers get their marching orders.

I've also heard a few horror stories about Russian brides. Sometimes the husbands are lucky to escape with their lives.

Choosing a Filipino bride would be a safer bet and a lot less costly. A cousin of my mothers was a paraplegic and very lonely. His family were shocked when he bought himself a mail order Filipino girl, but she looked after him until he died - no mean feat.

There are a few Filipino women in my area who have stayed with their unpleasant looking husbands for decades. Generally if they can send a little money home to their family - they seem content with their lot.

I've seen some dreadfully mismatched Filipino women tagging along like stumpy little midgets with their disgusting-looking gray-haired men who look as though they could never crack it for a white woman.

Pragmatism is bred into these women from birth. Forget romance and personal choice ~ just think of your parents and do whatever it takes to support them in their old age.

I'll bet the neighbours were sorry she accepted him back.

Aviaries in backyards are the bane of neighbours for the noise that starts shrieking out of them from before the sun comes up in the mornings.

And then it's an intrusive and distracting racket for the rest of the day.

Trust me ~ I know.

I used to keep aviaries and they weren't that noisy. It depends on the birds. Budgies, cockatiels and love birds are fairly quiet.

They were an expensive nuisance though. Some fool gave my 6 year old son a baby budgie for his birthday and it was so lonely we got it a mate. Then there were 6 budgies and suddenly people were dropping off cages of sick birds on my doorstep and never coming back for them - so I ended up with about 60 birds and 3 aviaries.

Twenty years later and there's one old lorikeet and a cockatiel left. The two of them make more noise on their own than those 60 plus birds ever did.

Cockatiels? They used to drive me NUTS. My brother got rid of his because they were driving BOTH of us 'spare'.

On my 40 minute daily walks I round a corner into a No Throughway mini-ghetto of about 100 houses or so, and way in the distance I can already hear this one plaintive shriek from a lonesome cockatiel imprisoned in a cage on someone's front porch.

Poor little blighter. What a cruel fate. Meanwhile there are dozens of lorikeets chasing around this same street having a feast on all the bottlebrush nectar. Their noise is not irritating, and they're off somewhere else in an hour or so.

There are lots of people who are totally unaffected by what others find to be irritating noise and racket. It's psychological.

I live with an almost permanent state of low-volume migraine, and maybe there's a clue there. When I make coffee in the morning, if I drop the spoon or make the slightest banging noise by accident it feels exactly as though I'm suffering from a bad hangover. I can feel my brain shrink protectively.

Maybe you can put little muzzles on your last remaining feathered friends? Tongue
