This year, I partied instead! Took the day off work.. and the following day for pre-emptive recovery.
I woke up to the rainiest, miserable weather I've seen thus far this year. Very un-Australian!
After getting home at 5am from work, I rolled my arse out of bed at 11am and made my way in to town.
Myself and Kel (a fellow Walkie survivor) checkout out bar number one. It was overcrowded, out of the way, and did I mention overcrowded! Filled with VB drinking loud mouths. A few vodkas and we jumped on a bus to Clapham. Aussie party central.
The bus ride was an unexpected delight. Ever in London? Ride the 88.. It's a free tour! Through Picadilly circus, past Trafalgar square and up through Westminster. Even in the rain, it was pretty awesome.
It was a great day/night filled with wasted Aussies, Triple J, cheap fake tattoos and dancing.
Hangover of champions today. Glad I took it off!
