snow white and the severed wharves

Australian Slang

Snow White was a beautiful young Strine secret service agent. In private life she was a doctor of philospophy and a connoisseur of immersion heating. As a counter spy (officially known as 004., she was noted for her dexterity with the hypodermic syringe and for her unswerving promiscuity in the service of her country. Her most remarkable attributes, however, were her extraordinary powerful lungs, which she used to great advantage whenever mouth-to-mouth anti-reuscitation was the only way to escape from the embraces of a no longer useful admirer. This high-pressure method was rather frowned on by her more conservative colleagues but it was undeniably effective; her victim just dilated like a sunfish and became entangled in the chandeliers, or drifted over the horizon in whatever direction the wind happened to be blowing.
