I haven’t been doing much apart from work, sleep and playing with my new powerbook for over a week now, but I had to blog about this.
The weekend before last, we had Gab-fest ‘05 (being Mick’s bucks weekend). On Friday, Tim, Tom and myself kidnapped Mick from work and we started driving, not telling him anything! Muhahahah

Mick, we’re coming to get you!
Jen had packed his bags for us, so we were set. We jumped on a plane to Sydney, and after some HUGE delays we finally made it. Had a big night walking around the CBD and Darling Harbour and setting in at the casino for some heavy drinking.
The next day we ate at the Meat and Wine Co.

…and ate the greatest steak ever.
We went to the PowerHouse museum and rode the monorail around the city. Monorails are cool. We even checked out the bridge and the Opera House.

before making our way back to Melbourne to meet the rest of the crew at Manchester Lane, to enjoy some jazz and some REAL beer (Carlton Draught, not that Tooheys shit!). After going to Red Silks for dinner, we met up with everyone back at the Pub at Crown.
I went home afterwards, but the Ballarat crew drove home and got up to some more mischief. Have a read of
Tim’s, Tom’s and Mick’s accounts of the weekend. Do it!
