Myer’s Whopper by John Clarke
Take the pieces from the package,
Lay them out as per the graph,
Gathering the bits you’ll need,
Removing what you shouldn’t have.
With the implement provided
Ease the bearings to the left,
Push the little angled mullion
Up into the socket ‘F’.
This will free the moulded bracket
Holding back the nylon strand,
Draw the slippery hoop and coupling
Through the right-hand rubber-band.
Put the topside brown side outside,
Push the inside upside down,
Underneath the left-hand wingnut,
Press the folding backward crown.
Overlapping lifting side-flaps
Lower in to fit the screws,
Pack up tools, retire to distance,
Don protective hat, light fuse.

His brother is Michael Neill, Emeritus professor of English literature and HOD of Auckland University's English department for many years. Michael's specialist subject is Elizabethan and Jacobean drama and his lectures were a wonder to attend apparently. Michael also acted - playing King Lear before he left New Zealand for Europe. Those Neill boys from the Tairei plains, both Canterbury University alumni (I believe) did well for themselves- but Sammy, maybe you just pipped Michael at the post in the acting stakes 😁

What a lovely memory to have!

[@seanbillington3287]

Sam Neill: the classiest, humblest and most wholesome actor in the business. Severely under-recognized and under-appreciated.

[@user-uy6uc5ey5q]

To be fair, that the way he wants it.

[@tracycoulson2141]

Michael, bless him is very proud of his younger brother! You can just tell! So sweet!

[@tracycoulson2141]

Loving this too!

Obviously we enjoy watching Sam talking about ANYTHING!- love, an adoring fan.🥰 Dead Calm was awesome:) I love your dinky toys. 🥰

[@johngwynne155]

John Clarke is a total kak :)) Particularly with you, Sam, together in Death in Brunswick, one of the funniest Australian movie 'capers'. Set in the inner Melbourne suburbs sometime in the mid 80's (I think). If you haven't ever seen it you are missing out. I'd be interested to see any other material that you have worked on together, film or otherwise.

Esperaba que mostrara juguetes de dinosaurios,pero los carritos igual están geniales

[@gerrylarkin3455]

[@ritanovak4401]

You are beautiful in all sense... 🇨🇱😘😘😘

[@melindakhristine9417]

What a great story? I would love to know the book title behind him. It looks like, "Understanding the...." I can't see the other word. Anyone know? My brother is 18 months older than me. He was great at everything artistic. Me? I was a late bloomer in everything. I became artistic in later years. Course maybe I learned it from watching him. Lol. I was taller than him for years. "So how's the weather down there Tom." Lol. I could rest my arm on his shoulder. Then one summer between high school summer break and without notice he shot up taller than me. Lol. It was his turn to tease me about being shorter. Thanks for the story Sam!

Hi Sam neil

[@reider0608]

[@peterpecconi6357]

Drunk 😂

[@linnightl9277]

No - it is his personality facebook.com/abcnews.au/videos/710790759658839/

[@user-uy6uc5ey5q]

No, John Clarke died about 3 years (9 April 2017) prior and Sam and John very very good friends. It was very unexpected. Those are tears he trying to hold back during the reading. I am massive fan of Clarke including his poetry and I know I was tearing up.

[@Naniss1965]

Alan Grant talking about toys... Nice.

[@hilarydent6101]

Do you have grandchildren, Sam? You need them…xx.

[@user-uy6uc5ey5q]

He does. The recent thing about his dropping his personal privacy to be a bit more of a media figure hasn't extended to his wider family, I think for the best.

[@humanwolf1984]

I have figurine Dinosaurs sam. 😇
