I was Peter. Now I'm going to don my father's war medals, crack a stubby or seven and play my Ricks 'till my fingers smoke!!

One more funny thing: in Russia $100 is an average school teacher's monthly wage...

Given the average wage here, that's $3500 AUD (before income tax) ....... Crikey!!

You'd sure as hell want to enjoy it!!

Ahem... and could you imagine the audience expected? The "suit-and-tie" public, and their suits of a size to shelter you and Peter together (and there'd be some space left for me...). Ladies looking like mannequins from a steepest French boutique. Maybe Moscow government executive and the president. What a show, dammit!
