PPB's dead cat flounce

THE husband paid the agistment expenses. The wife owned the horses. The husband owned the commercial premises in Sydney's west. The wife occupied them. She ran a small legal practice. He covered most of her outgoings. And charged her a dollar a year in rent. Yeah, I know. The sisters just can’t cop a break.

And of course there's more. This is a public examination. PBB's Mark Robinson is the trustee in bankruptcy to the wife's estate. The creditors want gravy. Sydney's queen of insolvency litigation Sally Nash was doing the questioning on Robbo's behalf. As she probed both the husband and afterwards the wife both oozed embarrassment. Messy and protracted is the pursuit of gravy.
