Ferrall pere et fils must laugh like drains when they get the TWOPment. “Yack it up, you balcony-dwelling, quince paste sniffing, neo-Kantian corksoakers ‘cos we are about to crush our toes by dropping our wallets on our feet.” Krazy Kym and I walked the dogs this week and we were knee-deep in urine-stained mattresses (none, alas, endorsed by famous Beaufort Street Teh Arrondisement residents). What goes out must come in. I bet BSwaM doesn’t see this in his part of the US of A. An explanation of these pics for aliens like BSwaM: if you lie on a mattress and sing the WA state song, you get 5 per cent off your next power bill. Of course this was put on hold during CHOGM. We were thrilled to see a Dunlopillo: could it have been the very mattress Robert Drewe’s father presented to him at the end of the uproar and confusion in The Shark Net?* Our literary and heritage overlords should’ve taken it away for preservation. I ordered the dogs to pull the King Koil queen from under the sensational pile so I could better photograph it, but they cocked their legs. More urine.
*The greatest WA book ever, despite being written by a Victorian.

Am I to once again expect delays in being fellated? maybe there’s a delay in me finding a new schtick?

Seconded, Pete. And is this the WA state song, DFOC ? Maybe this. Regardless, it’s a beautiful morning and Fuji-san’s looking great, so the bike beckons.

Would “lying on a mattress” include “Of course I haven’t done this before with anyone else!”?
I assume the mattresses are awaiting pick-up on rubbish day as opposed to simply being scattered artlessly about to lend to the beauty of the scene.
Fantastic last photo…and what looks like a rather interesting house in the first one.

why would you not assume that we scatter mattresses around freely?
