To all, Have a fabby night tonight, be you there, or in your own loungeroom.
Be you gay,straight or whatever, turn to the one next to you, big HUGZ, and may you have the bestest of nights.
This one’s from 20 years ago tonight, and I was there. Seems just like it was yesterday.

Who can forget Roger Mountjoy Thump.
Roger came to Sydney as a cabin boy on the SS Venus and became part of the Sydney Thump diaspora.
He took to the beaches, surfing and was a very good long distance swimmer. In those early days he kept his predilection for todger to himself becoming something of a water closet, however on seeing his first mardi gras he came out as a shirt lifter, was beaten up and lost his job.

I remember the Fantasy World Cup of 1998, with Baddiel and Skinner, which I think remains the funniest sports related TV show I’ve ever seen. They were showing some clips of infelicitous football commentary, including “I’m sure some of the England shirts will be lifted by his antics”.

Mr Elipse. He’d be damned if he didn’t. He’s done it many times anyway. So it’s not great world changing stance.. It’s his electorate. IIRC, Lucy has actually been it in when she was Lord Mayor of Sydney.
Mr Turnbull has turned to bull since his PM ship. What he equivocally supported as an MP has vaporised as PM.
