I was thinking about a skinny little kid - they're the worst. I wonder if we could borrow one of Brad Pitt's kids?

I used to love Rolf Harris though.

Even if he was an immigrant.

Ohhh...:ohmy:

Named after Rolf Boldrewood, an Australian writer his mother admired, he was born in Bassendean, a suburb of Perth, Western Australia, to Cromwell ("Crom") Harris and Agnes Margaret Harris (née Robbins) who had both emigrated from Cardiff, Wales.

Harris moved to England as an art student at City and Guilds Art School, Kennington, South London at the age of 22, getting into television with the BBC in 1953, performing a regular ten-minute cartoon drawing section with a puppet called "Fuzz", made and operated on the show by magician Robert Harbin.

Only if you fraternize with non-immigrants.

I think it's the shape of the Albert Hall that does it. The sound goes round and round.

Nah. We can't do that. This place is like Afghanistan. We'll be required to stay in the Trailer Park for generations to come, you know, to protect the locals.
