Chill Out

Saturday morning we drove up to Daylesford for the weekend. We stayed at Fae's house on East St. It's an adorable little home, decorated with the most exquisite taste. We relaxed in her backyard reading newspapers under a huge tree. We then hooked up with Mark, Brett and Andrew for drinks at Peppers. They drove up with some friends, Troy and Ceaton who were lots of fun. We sat on the lawn getting quite drunk and watching the crowd wonder by. It was very civilised with lots of eye candy to look at. There was live music, which wasn't too overbearing. We then had a disco nap back at Fae's house, before heading to the Palais for dinner & a show - a delicious meal & drag extravaganza. We met up with the boys and had a fun night. We couldn't sit at the same table but we did meet a fantastic Lesbian couple who were a lot of fun. Quite interestingly, we had a lot in common. Unfortunately the other gay couple were too quiet, even for me! Like most drag shows, it went on and on and on. But it finally finished amidst multi coloured feather boas. We had the most delightful sleep too - no trams, traffic, neighbours or lights to keep us awake. This morning we had breakfast out, and headed to the Carnival. It was a lot of fun. Better than last year for some reason. Instead of Babba, a Kylie impersonated performed, singing songs, (with her own voice) and had real professional dancers. There were plenty of familiar faces and again, lots of eye candy. We had fun dropping the bomb or spreading the news that we were moving to Sydney.
Alan drove to Daylesford and I drove back. We love our little car. We left Daylesford at 4:30pm and arrived in Melbourne by 5:45pm. Of course it's another stinking hot day. It was a fun weekend - we have Monday off, so we're looking forward to doing nothing. We may catch up with Fae as she returned from Sydney and will be staying in town til tomorrow. Too bad Shayne couldn't join us...Jason & David went away for the weekend too and weren't available. We also ran into Suzie who was working at the PLWHA stand. Alan ran into his boss and told him the news about the new job and moving to Sydney. Basically resigning in the middle of Chill Out.
