Hey, I know that it’s been a while since I rapped at ya, but I’ve been partying to within an inch of my life. There are pics from Sydney if you click “Continue Reading” on the webpage. If you’re reading this in your email, you miss out on the pics, sorry 
Friday was my first day off, and I went and got a mohawk. It was awesome, I loved it. There was a free poker tournament later that morning, at which I came about 58th. That was ok. Then I went to get my license renewed.
Oh, man the license photo is hilarious. I’ll show it to you next time I see you, if you remind me. I headed over to M&Ds and Mum and I went out for dinner at Fasta Pasta, which was ok. Pretty funny really, as we enjoyed people’s reactions to my outrageous hair style.
Saturday I bludged around a bit, slept in as much as possible, and had lunch with Leyton at the Qantas lounge (Leyton drove me to the airport). I caught the train to the Lowenbrau for the party, and had a blast. The 1L steins of beer you can see pictured were $16.50, which was on the expensive side, but they were great. I ate a Pork Knuckle, which was good too. I vaguely recall winning the beer-sculling comp, mostly because I saw the picture which jogged my memory. Next thing, it’s 5 in the morning, we’re sitting around, completely hammered, in a strip club on Pitt Street, and another interstate guy and me shared a cab to the airport. The wait for the plane was pretty painful, as the sun was starting to come up. I met perhaps the most georgeous air hostess in the world (her name was Donna, for those who are interested) and promptly fell asleep. Caught a cab back to my place and slept till 3pm Sunday.
Sunday evening I went to a bbq at Chris Hall’s place. It was nice - John and Tina were there, and I got maximum bragging rights on the haircut. That was a good night.
I slept in as much as possible on Monday (which wasn’t much, because Mum woke me up) and veged out in front of the computer, recovering. Leyton and I went to the pub for lunch - I had this great lasagne - and later I picked Mum up for an early family night at M&D’s.
Family night tonight is off - I can’t say why - but if anyone would like $10 Indian buffet, I’d like the company.
