Neighbour says he and his bowling mates lamenting their ongoing losses on Turners and can’t understand why they are still underwater with Oceania. Wished they had sold all their Turners instead of holding on to some and don’t believe that Oceania is a sure bet anymore.

He got excited when I mentioned the new hot stock in ZEL ...especially when I mentioned a guru who wasn’t just raving about the great divie but how he was hedging / reducing his petrol bill. I said in his case he could almost run his Suzuki Swift for free.

Pissing down with rain today so no bowls ...I think he’s gone up to the club to chew the fat over with his mates. The bar doesn’t open until 4 I’m told.

Hope for ours sake they don’t puke into Z
