Cup BBQ @ Mountview

[queenalex]

Dearest gents and ladies,
A BBQ will be held at Mountview on Melbourne Cup Day (the 7th of November). If you could bring along a few nibbles, that would be appreciated. Otherwise, your mere presence would be a boon.

P.S. Rock up, bitches.

Once I had to work on Cup Day. I worked in a call centre and we all got really drunk. Trying to sell health insurance whilst drunk = awesome.
I will attend Mountusviewus. I am bringing the ever so wonderful Emma.

I MIGHT have an exam that day... I have a choice of handing in an essay by this Friday, or doing it to time on Cup Day... hmmmmm

This means I will most likely be there, but late.

I can't go, it's too far. Also, I'm working that day. Cup Day isn't a public holiday here (although we're having a 3 hour lunch anyway).

GASP!

That's HORRIBLE. I completely forgot that you don't get Cup Weekend interstate... but but but... Cup Long Weekend is ingrained in our very culture! A whole long weekend devoted to drinking and gambling!!!

Actually, I don't get Cup Day off either. Stupid Monash.

Balls, now I'm working 10-5pm. That's karma for you.

Whoa. That's really shit Alex. Ring up sick or something. Can't you just not go?

Hey, when you guys make homebrew, you have to call it MountBrew

That's really fantastic. That's definitely happening.
I think we're going to have to wait til winter to do any brewing, cause there's no part of mountview where we can be sure to keep stuff cool during summer (whereas in winter we can pop a heatband on it and just regulate it that way).
