Description "This early show at La Mama is very Australian and also universal which is a very promising combination...predominantly set in a TAB office. There are two main story strands - the people who have devoted their entire lives to gambling and the endless form talk which attends that, and Frank, whose wife has just died and wants her ashes scattered at Flemington. Jane haunts and hassles Frank giving a clear picture of their marriage and patterns of behaviour."
