In my last posting I referred to some obnoxious young men at Narranderah as 'trainee yobbos'. The phrase is ambiguous, but I think it should have been clear that I was meaning 'young men who are in (unofficial, non state- or business-sponsored) training to be yobbos', ie neophyte yobbos, NOT, young men who are beneath my notice because trainees (ie unemployed)'. I myself have been unemployed for the last four years and cripples do not mock cripples. @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ Dr John Leonard PO Box 243, Woden, ACT 2606, AUSTRALIA 'The pavement-coloured dog Sniffs the pavement-kerb.'
