Terrible, terrible news about the young girl. Unsupervised Schoolies events are never a good thing. In SA it is now very formalised. Kids had been going to the south coast town of Victor for several years, going into pubs getting drunk etc. The local authorities (and others) knew they couldn't stop the kids coming so decided to formalise it and it is now like a music festival that goes all weekend. There is a heavy police presence and loads of volunteers to ensure the kids safety or rescue them when they are too drunk to look after themselves. There are now not too many arrests and most of the biggest trouble makers are the toolies.

I know how to darn socks. I even own a hundred+ year old darning mushroom. My grandmother taught me. Not that I've every actually darned any for my family other than the ones I did as a kid for practice. I have darned though, when my FIL swiped his keys across the arm of my new lounge chair and sliced a bloody big hole in it. I don't know how he did it with keys but he did. (He didn't mean to cut it but he was still an eejit for doing it.) I darned the hole and after 5 years you can still hardly see where it was. It was fiddley and I had to use a curved needle but it was a bloody brilliant repair job.

A guy at work still darns his socks, we were having a convo about it one day and he said that it difficult to get darning wool. The very next day I was at my local op shop and low and behold in a 20c basket of lose sewing goodies was several packets of darning wool in various shades of grey, blue and black, so I bought him the lot and he was thrilled.

hahaha they do look a bit that way, actually Ringo looks like Kerry for real!
They hum as if they are your bored spouse letting you know they are only half listening while they watch the telly, or like the duty-phonecall to a relative. I will try to teach them to carry a tune though.

Unfortunately passed away :( So sad

I know Jam! I was just thinking about my schoolies on the coast, where we stayed had ledges outside the windows and we used to climb out there and have D&M's wtf were we thinking? PS Im glad you are :D

So sad. #2 son went to Fiji for his schoolies and he says they were pretty well looked after. That's where he saw Josh as a DJ actually. They had their grog limited and none for the under 18's.

hope the temperature in Melbourne will be kind to you Mut, you should do it in the name of the "free ta wangs" campaign, like a community service.
 
I'm not sure I could let my kids do the schoolies thing. I would tell them they could get smashed on the Goldie at any time bar schoolies. I would be like get your head out of your arse and go build a well in Africa or some shit.




And is it wrong of me to want Burt Newton to just fuck off. Ya reckon he's like " quick Patty call channel 9 I need heart surgery, shit better get the grandkids in shot to negate Matthew"
Why do they assume people give a shit, even more wrong was that the story was straight after the schoolies tragedy one and it just made Burt look like a fuckhead.

Hi Bon!

It was actually quite warm here in Melbourne today. Poor Mut. It could give sausage sizzle a whole new meaning!
 
Ok I am having a go at before & after of K&F. Have not had a photobucket account for years so this will be interesting.

Wow thanks for sharing those bons.

I can't believe how small they look.

Were they distressed at all, do they make any noises when threatened?

and

how on earth are they able to hold their heads up with those incredible necks

They are tiny aren't they? Shearer said they were ok weight for their age though. Poor Kerry squealed & spat the whole time, very upset even though he is the tougher of the two. Frank just hummed, he is either of gentle disposition or a bit spesh, not sure.
 
...OMG... how skinny they look!... Kerry has the "Aw crap... I'm next" look... lol!... thanks for posting the photos bonnie... they're great... cheers.

Thks Sticky! yeah Kerry has good expressions, and just so you know, they prefer "svelte" rather than "skinny". Just trying to keep their self-esteem up.
 
oh wow, I'm in a bit of shock right now.

I was watching the news and figured out the girl that died at schoolies is my cousins daughter.

As soon as they said her name and that her dad is a journo at the courier mail I thought oh no. And the picture they showed of her on the news...she's the spitting image of her mum (my cousin). I'm so upset for them!
