Relaxing at home. Thats the beauty about being in melbourne, it's a public holiday! Might head down to the TAB and put $10 on a horse, that's about it though.

Sould be good - although i dont follow the horses its just a good chance to take it easy and socialise...... also another excuse to drink!

well it started off good, staying at my boyfriend's place.
but then become progressively worse within say 2mins once i got onto pennant hills rd :p
oh and then had to work......if you're thinking about being a teacher "sickies" just can't be planned at random :p
then went to go and watch the race, and was confronted with a paranoid parent who needs a relality chk so she realises her only child IS NORMAL! goddamnit!
don't know who won, didn't put ne money down, but did have a hot dog and pepsi max for lunch, which satisfied me :D hehehe

glad to hear you won a bonza hairy one!! u can buy me a drink nxt time u're down or i'm up there!! woot woot!

glad to hear everyone had bonza days!! (as u can see, bonza is my choice word for the week! :D)

sounds like i take the cake. i got the trifecta, and $20 for the win on delta blues (meaning $20 was the win bet, not the winnings)
