Bob Hawke - Australian Prime Minister in the 1980'sDuring the 1980's my ex-wife was HR manager at the Australian House of Representatives. Christmas 1988 (the first year they were in the new parliament house) the Labor Party (who were in government) put on a party for all the parliamentary staff. So, I tagged along, got a free beer. Anyway, this short, silver hair guy smoking a fat cigar comes up to me and says "G'day, mate, I'm Bob, how's it going?"
So I reply, "G'day Bob, I'm Ken. Great party, thanks for putting it on."
We chatted for another minute, then he moved on to do some more schmoozing.
