Dad's Ballsare stuck. I produce for a radio station in Sydney and one of my Brisbane colleagues, Rod Henshaw recorded this hilarious tale earlier in the year. It's been edited for brevity's sake. I'm no good at flash movie thingies but I reckon it'd make a great animation if anyone could be at all bothered. The old bloke's name is Harry and he decided to hold his own wake so he could see how much people loved him.. Rod was invited along and this was one of the tales to come out of the day. By the way, a Kelpie is a breed of working dog :-)

Harry's ballsHownow - Hello, I am "Son of Harry" - thanks for your support for the old bloke - he just loves the attention.
I have a copy of the tape played in Brisbane by Rod Henshaw, but none of us expected it to be played in Sydney. My wife, Gill and my sister Jane loved being able to talk to Richard about it.
I guess you are part of the ABC in Sydney - let me know.
It seems that Kimbo from the b3ta chat room is also quite taken with the story - I think he is trying to put a gif file together based on the story.
Thanks for your interest - it helps keep the old bloke alive!
Regards
