Now where was i ??? oh yeh. Its still raining & my $130.00pw scaffold makes a lovely waterfall. Managed to do a couple of hours on Friday, untill the liquid sunshine fell about my ears again. After last weeks shocking adventure i decided to up stumps as soon as the sun went. Which turned out to be fortuious, cos it pissed down as soon as i got in the car.
Saturday's fancy dress party was a hoot. When we arrived i had to carry a big box with lights/cables & a fog machine down a really steep winding driveway. Jeez for a moment i thought i would not be able to stop till i hit the pool .
Im glad i didnt take my guitar because the three piece band ( big Music i think ) were bloody awesome. They did one of the best renditions of The Letter that i have heard in years. there was also a couple of performers. One did a ball balacing act plus fire twirling. It was quite mesmorising. Another guy did a tap/ trumpet old classic I got Rythm I got Music, which was great..
The party girl Lizzie & two of her girlfriends did a couple of numbers complete with big hair & costumes, which sent the crowd yahooing & hollerin.
I have to say some of the costumes were great & people were really getting into it (myself included).
Gawd the sixties were a good time, i personally tried to recreate the free love aspect.......... to no avail damnitall.
Got pulled over by the booze bus on the way home, a very close call for Shabayah lol, i think the copper looked at the four ageing hippies in the car & thought bugger it way too much paperwork so at least we made it home safe.
Jeez even made a profit on the evening. I took my usual bottle of JD, but decided to start with little glasses of champers that were being handed around & stuck with it, then one of the passengers in the car decided she should put $10.00 for petrol. So a full bottle of JD , ten bucks & one joint left at the end of the night is all good.
unfortunately i didnt take any pictures I just videotaped. So yous will have to wait for some images.
