Mentioned in Despatches
As many of you would be aware, the creme de la creme of Brisbane Blogging ventured out on Friday night in to the People’s Republic of Queensland’s finest establishemnt, the Breakfast Creek Hotel.
Without a word being said, the impression was given that the same rules would apply to the event as you would expect at any End of Season Road Trip, or Bucks night. Namely, anyone caught with a camera could be ritually staked to a fire and what happened on the night stays on the night.
Probably safer for all concerned, especially if they envision a political career in their future. Don’t worry James, I am sure those stains will come out eventually. 
Also in attendance on the day was the regular specious contibutor to Blair’s site, the Amortiser. I must admit that I was surprised that he turned up at all, considering the past , umm, unpleasantness, but I can happily report that he turned up with his pants ON this time and left with them on. In between is not something that we really need to discuss.
Nor the late night trip to visit the convent, … or the RSPCA. Still, on the bright side, it was fairly obvious that the cream is working a treat and the rash is almost completely cleared up.
Kev Gillett made a fashionably late entrance in his best sequinned and tafeta’s ball gown. I thought the tiara was a nice touch. There is a term that your grandmothers’ grandmothers may have used once or twice to denote the inebriated state of your grandfather’s grandfathers, that they are in their cups. Personally I think Kev may have bypassed the china cabinet and gone straight for the laundry shed out the back because ‘Cups’ doesn’t really do justice to what Kev may or may not have been.
Not when ‘Washing Tubs’ can be considered as a substitute. But still, despite being what can euphamistically described as being ‘tired and emotional’ he still has a beautiful singing voice and his rendition of Bros classics in medly form was something that will be discussed for many years.
Bikko, whilst unable to participate in body, turned up in spirit through the wonders of modern technology. For those that are unaware, Paul will soon be joining the Royal Australian Air Force. Well what he actually said was that he was going to be joining a bunch of screaming little shirt-lifting pansy boys who wear blue and play with airplanes, so I made the logical assumption.
All in all it was a very good night and we have already made a note to have another one soon. Hopefully by that time, the plastic surgery will have been finalised and for those that will remain nameless, a new entry in to polite society can be attempted. Time will certainly tell.
Looks like there is a problem with commenting via firefox with this new theme, it asks for the security word but we can’t see it, i can see it through IE though.

ok thanks MK, might have to go back to the old version as that isn’t the only problem with it.
