Do they use a lot of finger gel? 😄

This is the satirical headline story from the Bell Tower Times - Perths equivalent of The Onion.

 

The bloke may not be familiar to East Coasters - but he's John Hughes, W.A.'s longest-lived car dealer, and a legend in W.A.

He turned 90 last December, and still runs personalised TV ads and asks car buyers to call him personally, and regularly states, he's "W.A.'s most trusted car dealer".

He's also Alan Bonds BIL. Yes, THAT Alan Bond. But John Hughes has managed to evade any of the Alan Bond taint, in his business dealings.

Is this bloke a personal friend? He seems to know you....

 

Another recent headline:-

 

"Perth man still not going to concede that was a storm"

Almost like George Day, I think he must have been the only caravan dealer over there. Nearly every WA van has his sticker on it.

[onetrack]

Yeah, old George was certainly the caravan flogger. But he died in 2013 and Apollo Motorhomes, a publically listed company bought his business as a going concern in 2017, and bought the rights to use his name as well.

 

Then in 2022, George Day Caravans was merged into THL (Tourism Holdings Ltd), originally NZ's biggest RV rental operation - but the merger with Apollo, an Australian company, sent them global, and they operate in a multitude of countries. They are huge, and own all the major well-known RV rental brand names. So Georges name has gone global, thanks to the corporate global aims.

Yep - no skills, but she wants to fly the plane.......

We need some levity back in this thread. Cartoon author is unknown, so I can't acknowledge them.

Her shorts are too tight. Maybe she's "Way Too Fat" for them, or it Means "Waiting to Fornicate."?  Not everybody has a Dirty mind and needs to be profane all the time. . Nev
