May I welcome you to the Trans Gendering vehicle for the weekend. We will be travelling at a constant speed until we reach our destination for more fun than you can poke a long cigarette holder at. So frock up, jump in and wear your party shoes as we make our way into the wild blue yonder to schmooze with the country lads and lasses of Wang.

Falls Creek '97

It was never going to be a smooth process of departure. Everything was organised Wednesday night: I was leaving with Tim at 6pm Friday night. Late Thursday night though, Dave did a change of travel arrangements so I'd be out of Melbourne by 2pm. Of course, 2pm on Friday went by without a ride, and I was switched back to Tim's car, leaving at 6pm. At 8:30pm, we were finally on our way to the snow. With hardly a car to be seen on the alpine road (except for the one that Tim failed to see anyway as we turned the corner!), we pulled into the Falls Creek Oversnow around 1am, very tired, but relieved to have made it and be on holiday, if only for a couple of days.

Although countless hours have been wasted away discussing the "Is There a God" topic at the Clyde on Wednesdays following training, I can only hope that through the events defining our season everyone can at least keep Ron's mind open.

This party has been in the pipeline for seven years. Since 1990, dates have been written in diaries across Australia. The Terminator 2 party was held on the 29th of August, 1997. It was the date in the movie in which our civilisation came to an end.

Patty 'Choppa' Chier celebrated her 21st in fine fashion at the Retreat Hotel in Abbotsford on the 10th of May. The invitation said "please dress up", which seemed appropriate with Choppa being such an elegant young lady, but was later defined as fancy dress as Patty was questioned about the formal attire aspect of the evening..."Yeah, dress up, you know what I mean!"

I was going to start at the beginning, I've heard it's a very good place to start, but not being one for convention thought that I might start with the last....
