Melbourne Nudies

Driving home from work yesterday with the radio on instead of the usual audio book, I heard a news item that caused me to guffaw loudly.

Reacting to the lack of mention at all in the recent Federal Budget, a group of pensioners had marched in the city and when gathered together at a suitably public spot had proceeded to strip off! Another semi-nude protest to follow up from a recent one by taxi drivers.

Who's going to be next? Should I be politically incorrect and say that one is definitely a better look that the other?

No, better not.

I'm not sure if the taxi drivers' strip off was planned, but female pensioners wearing pink bras over T shirts certainly give the game away for their protest. Whatever..the taxi drivers got a change of policy, the pensioners didn't.

Has it been hot down there lately with all these shirtless protests going on. I thought it was going into winter in the southern hemisphere?

You're quite right..cold and more recently...wet.

I'm having a bit of fun speculating on which group will be next....!
