Don't be surprised if it happens

Don't be surprised if it's not shortly announced that a very large SA corporate body who has links to a couple of high profile SA sporting clubs is not placed in the hands of the "receivers" in the very near future.

Clipsal is owned by Schneider, a massive French company. Won't be them.

Are we talking Radio Rentals, or someone like that ?

The Bianco rumours have been circulating since before Xmas. I don't think its any secret they are doing it tough at the moment. I dare say building that gigantic premises at Gepps Cross, and the economy going pear-shaped soon afterwards hasn't helped the cause.

Gee, kick the man whilst he's down!

He's a very sincere, generous man who looks after those around him ... read the article about him in the Advertiser today, he's been doing that for years.

He's also a very proud man and will do everything in his power to honor his commitments.

If it does happen (which I very much doubt), it will be an absolute travesty of justice.
Dunno, I’m just an idiot.

I’m only the administrator of the estate of dedja … my yes be yes, my no be no
