My kinda guy!  :)

I think it’s an allusion to the RIder on a White Horse (Rev 6:2/19:11). Possibly the field language is of the Elyssian Fields (not unlike Elliot to mix his metaphysics).

Crikey! Very cool. So it is not only alluding to a Clint movie (Pale Rider) but also a Russell Crowe flick (Gladiator).

um, yes. Sort of.
not.

Strike me pink, Davo , you’re coming the raw prawn with me, cobber.

TS Eliot wrote prophetically, and the greater fulfillment of the journey of the Mag must surely be understood through Russ and Clint. I know Michael Jensen agrees with me on this.

Gordo/Bruce,

The reason your prawns are raw is because you’re leaving them out until 4 in the morning. Even if you’re going to stay up, put the prawns in the fridge.

Michael may agree with you, but then he’s not a heretic like me. ;-)

I don’t know what I think -

lucky I’ve got Gordo to tell me!
