So there’s this story about two blokes at the beach, feet dug in sand and arses plonked on deck chairs; piss froths at their stubbies. Life is good.

The porky lad is named Mudflap who sports a hat, and another fella named John. Mudlap’s name came from the fact that he debuted a mullet from the age …
