Wild and Woolly Tim and Ru, the Jolly Farmers, are now two jumps ahead of the bailiff, instead of one, owing to the rise in Wool prices. Santa Claus disguised as the landlord has just called and said " Don't worry boys, I won't foreclose now that you've given me the Wool cheque." Altogether things are looking up. Tim: The Landlord seemed hurt when 1 referred to him as the Sheik. What I really meant was that he was a wolf in Sheik’s clothing. Ru: Cornu, come little tto-Reep—your wit is woolgathering. Let us drink to the Golden Fleeco before we farmers are fleeced. Tim: Ba Ba Black Sheep, don’t pull the wool over my eyes*. Let’s sheer into the Jolly Farmer, “just around the corner,” and try k drop of moa’s milk. Ru: / wool, wether ewe like it or not . We’ll muster our resources and join the flock of Timaru enthusiasts. Come thou simple swain, thou lowly shepherd, come hither for a bucket of dragon’s blood. Good old Timaru, the antidote for snakebite, politicians 9 promises, unbalanced budgets and democratic (?) government. JOHN REID’S ] (XJdla3 be Bottled with loving care by John Reid & Coi Ltd.
