the absolute best was a place in south of sydney near san sousi its called pauls , and all it did was sell hambugers but paul wasa funny bastard , so 2 things , one he married a famous opera singer , what was funny about that ?, well he was just a local chippy and she was this very posh or so we thought rich girl , but after a couple of yrs when paul would not travel with her to shows as he had his "punters "to feed she did the opposite , she donned the apron and worked his till . but the comprimise was 12 to 2 and shut 5.pm to 7. then shut they didnt need the money but paul needed to be well himself , and she loved him so the line at pauls at lunch was like maccas on a big day same for tea . and he had 5 helpers but only he was allowed on the grill paul got sick , the place didnt open , paul went to london with his wife for a concert , the place didnt open . paul went into state with the mrs itdidnt open . but when it did , it was jam packed , such a nice couple when the line was so big paul would yell "honey , give em a tune or 2 " sorry people with you in a min pauls was where i was introduced to opera , because the lady with the big bee hive and the big t......s behind the cash registar was not too proud to say" sure darlin why not , poor buggers gonna be here a nother 20min" . and into it she would go nearly blow your eardrums out . absolute stunning , this occurance happend many times while iwas there and my order was always 2 burgars in the morning shift 2 in the nite . and a concert every 3rd day . i was like 21 or 22 then and now i am 50 so you can see what an impression these 2 lovely people had on me , but nothing like my favourite song which she burned into my mind one nite and it was a saturday . some jerk at the back of the line was yellin cant you sing anything else , other than that shit . obviously a new customer , now paul flew around from the grill , and his wife caught his arm and said its ok honey . and she burst into unaccompanied , the best rendition of beast of burden i have ever heard and will ever likely to mick jagger would never sing it again if he heard this nightingale with the force 5 voice belting it out . and when she finnished i had my favourite song , and then as she drew a standing ovation , paul had snuck around to the line and just belted this bloke , and he too got a standing ovation and as he walked back around the counter putting his apron back on , he said "well i think he will remember who his beast of burdon was tonite , sorry honey .but a mans women dont have to here that "
oh the 2nd thing well the hambugar ingredients was ham , paul said it cant be a hambuger if it isnt ham, so you could get a beef burger but it had ham on it you could get a hamburger but it had ham and his cheese burger was just that cheese burger . no ham or beef but you could not get a beef burger at pauls for all the money in sydney , but you could get a smile , and a" how she going mate" , and if you were lucky a song .
