"Burnum Burnum!" yell the men as the women take their turn doing burnouts and drag racing in the souped up Holdens.

Agnes even has her pet cat, Busby, on the seat next to her.
"It Woodbine a good few weeks since I last Bournda bit o' rubber," shouts Glen above the noise.

"Yeah, me too," replies Bel. (His full name is Belvedere but he doesn't want to seem too up himself, so he shortens it.) He lights a cigarette and starts Coffin Bay-dly.

"Smoking is bad fer yer tyres, mate," adds Geri."Mine are practically Warneet. I shall have to dip my hands into Moy Pocket soon to buy another set."

"Smoking is bad fer yer health too, Bel," Glen reminds him. Smokers' Coffs Harbour nasty surprises like blood clots."

This makes Bellangry. Belrose to his own defence. "It's not smoker's cough. I have a nasty bug. I caught it off one of the girls. I'm not sure which one."

"Caroline Springs to mind. I see that she has Weipa sores around her mouth and she's been through a Ceres of men lately," sniggers Geri.

Suddenly Agnes Banks the car to the right and Meeandahs across the road. The car does a Gunbarrel, Highway, Upwey in the Skye. In fright, alongside her, Rosevears off the road as she shoots around the corner.

"Berrambool over and take a look Zeehan as how they could both be in a bad way an' all," suggests Glen.

Well, Agnes is in Tecoma so they call an ambulance.

"You'd better call Agnes's mum next. Have Urunga yet?"asks Glen. "What exactly are you goin' te Tullah?"

"I've tried Taringa but there's no answer," replies Geri.

"Wilcannia keep trying?" requests Glen.

"Aragunnu check on Rose?" asks Bel. "She's been around the Bendalong time Benowa."

"Rutherglen than me," says Geri but he runs ahead anyway.

When Geri gets to Rose she is Cowerin in the front seat. She might be concussed because she feels dizzy when she tries to Bindoon. She also has a really Crackenback. So what didgeridoo? He called the ambulance Officer over and he puts her in the ambulance alongside Agnes. Siren blaring, the ambulance leaves for the hospital.

The men are left stranded by the roadside. Fortunately there is a shopping centre nearby. "Hayman, let's settle our nerves with a bite to eat, "suggests Bel as they pass a hamburger joint."Let's Papunya and Triabunna two."

"I'd prefer Curramore. Let's go Jai Ho's Indian Restaurant rather, "pleads Glen."It's Monday today and I hear that they do a special Currimundi." Bel usually prefers his Dinner Plain but he does not Mount Remarkable resistance so in they go.
Suddenly, in the middle of their Bombay Beef they remembered the cat. "Gaawd," says Geri, as he jumps up, "I Wanda what became of Busby?"

Turns out Busby's Flat up against the windscreen with an Indented Head and one Cattai dribbling down the dashboard.
"Jeez, what a Mossman, "exclaims Glen."Has his face taken a Bangor what? That cat must have hit the windscreen Leichhardt."

"Poowong," says Geri, "What a stench. We'd better bury him quick. This savage heat doesn't take long to make a Mogareeka."
