P.S. Muldoon was very likely my second cousin once removed (long funny story involving venereal disease and a home for single mothers). Given the tree that gave life to this sapling, I have a lot of catching up to do.

My grandfather, Charlie Gough was white, male and middle aged and he was even a founding member of the RSA, but they charged him with sedition for encouraging dairy workers to strike (back in the days when it wasn't the done thing). So I reckon all you need to be a big cheese in this country is a couple of cows and a paddock. Forget the rest. You'll be glad to know Charlie got off. Yes, he had the last word and the last laugh. The court records even noted his LOUD VOICE. In the end they took too long buggaring around bringing him to trial and he got off on a technicality. Says it all really.
