Manly

Karla and I went to Manly... totally overrated, and the food service, extremely slow. Ferry ride is nice though.




SO THIS IS BATHURST

Don't ask, there are too many stories about this to explain over the blog. However Erica and I randomly decided to go to Bathurst for the night on Saturday. We went out, I went home, Erica stayed out, Erica came home (to the commerical 'Backpackers' room) at 6.30am and was still shitfaced when we started to drive home later that morning. Then we did a lap of the mountain. Erica does not remember doing this. I drove around the mountain on my L plates. I continued to drive... illegally... all the way home to Sydney. We eat a pie from the Leura Country Woman's Association. Erica begins to remember things. Oh and you will see a photo of what looks like we are in ibiza, no, its just the Ox's new Medusa night club, with cage and dance pit. Very weird. Eddy still shit. Park still full of people who want to fight Angus. And towers still standing. Notice, the massive cages around the balconies too - just incase you didnt feel chlotrophobic enough when living there.





They just do it so well








They do it so well, dont they? Oh yes, so well. Ok, everyone that works at the zoo is HOT. Like I mean everyone from the bird show pressenter to the parking attendants, HOT. And how cool is it that they can go... "Um yeah, I'm a Zoo Keeper". Love to see that business card! Edwina and I went to the zoo on Saturday. Lovely day for it. Here are some images of our zooilogical experience. Us in the cable car, the new asian section, edwina patting/feeding the miniture giraffes. Did you know we have more than 6000 breeds of birds here in Australia? I didnt. And did you know that Edwina is shit scared of all of them?

SWANNIES

So I went to the swans on friday night, at telstra stadium. Awesome night out. Great atmosphere and they won. Which is a change from the last match I went to at the begining of the season where they lost dismally. Good times, good times.



TV TURNS 50












So we were seat warmers at Ch 7's 'TV turns 50'. It was like the logies, only no awards and mainly just channel 7 people. So much fun. Irene from home and away tried to get me drunk. She was hot for it. And Anne Sanders is AMAZING in the flesh. And Pippa and Micheal, sorry, Deborah and Dennis and the best. Dennis does the best maurie fields impression. Did you know they are married in real life? Well, its true. One of the best stores front the night was when Karla was getting down on the dance floor with Chris Hemsworth (current Home and Away pin-up boy Kym) and Jennifer Hawkins cut in and started dancing with him. Karla turns to me and is like "Miss Universe is cutting my grass!" Here are some photos. Oh and Ernie Dingo is a chain smoker. Still drunk untill about midday at work the next day too. Very naughty. But who can turn down free piss? Not baby john burgess apparently... he shops in vegas. Yes, thats me with Bobby too. And Kate Ritchie, and Jennifer Hawkins.

Family Matters

So my cousins came down last weekend too. We went to the ABC and went to visit granny in her new "home" too. A few photos: a shot of my feet when lying on my grandmother's bed. The other woman in the room in lying in her bed, where you can see her piss bag. I thought the last place was depression central, no, no, this is where depression lives (well living is arguable). Also, we asked some guy to take a photo of all the grandkids (and great grandkids) and you will see the crap photo he took, how is there any excuse for this kind of photography? Anyway, someone else re-took it.








KP's PARTE

Big night following sailing. Out till 4am. We were inspired by sailing earlier that day (I wore my yacht club v-neck knit the commodore gave me) and we invesnted some new dance moves including "the tack" where you turn and spin, and my favourite, the "lean out" where you simply lean back and forward - see pictures for demonstration. Tim smashed a window.











Sailing








All this needs is photos. Dani, Claire, Tim, Tim, Belly all got taken for a sail on the Commoroe's laser. Claire was shitting herself untill she got out there and realised how much fun it was. Unfortunetly he wind was not as stong as I had hoped, but we all learnt how to tack, lean out and harness the power of the wind to propell human civilisation forward. Check out how hot I am in a sexy rip curl rash vest.
