Australia Day 2013
Decked out in my green fishnets and flagged boardies,
I covered myself in cheap flaky tatts and jumped
head first into 17 HOURS of exhaustion and pure madness.
From midday,
To very late,
the building was buzzing, non stop!
I was in a sauna all day! The upstairs bar was ROASTIN'!
The small team I was with up there were a bunch of troopers.
Starburst, grapes and Oreos in hand, we survived!!
The cleanup was epic, delirious, sticky and 2 hours long.
The bar made 135grand in one day :o
Unaustralian expectations of 30 young bar staff,
truly patriotic results!
The next day... Round 2 in paradise!
I saw the same mental people lining up at the bar.
Bunch o' crazies!
Luckily, day 2 was quieter.
(Yet within an hour I still managed a shoe full of cider)
We were all a bit batty from the day before but
stumbled our way through with roaring success.
I think, just maybe, next year I might like to drink in a sunny backyard.
Beers in hand, J's ringing in my ears. Doesn't seem right any other way!
