Wakey wakey hands of snakey! As kane says everytime he wants your attention... Really I think I might have to kill him...
Today's entry my dear readers will be a messy one, it involves alcahol, old ladies support pants and a pub in the middle of nowhere...among other things... Yes that's right, it's time for the infamous poo party! Hosted by 84 year old les in his pub in the middle of nowhere exclusivly for kiwi experience riders and messier everytime :p the day started with our fancy dress theme being reveiled to us at last - what you want to be when you grow up. Well that's a pretty s***e theme if you ask me but it was soon taken to other more interesting and distasteful levels don't you worry! Our first job of the day then was to go round town trying to collect the faintest beginnings of a costume while spending as little as humanly possible! My costume for instance cost me $4.76 and consisted of 1100 shiny star shaped stickers, like the ones you get when you're a kid :p. Dave on the other hand wanted to be a wrestler and so required some form of leotard, the cheapest and most apropriate of which cost $25 and was in reality an old woman support leotard, size 20, complete with boobie flaps. Brilliant! It was my job then to help him find one that fitted (we started with size 16 but that was really just too damn tight :p) which involved me going in th me changing rooms with him to help lessen his embarrasment and view the uh finished article once he had it on. And may I say, one ball bulging out the side of a leotard is just not attractive. Funny yes. Acceptable in normal society no. Acceptble at the poo party - of course! :p.
The next step was creating our master pieces once we got to the pub itself and that was just brilliant fun! I spent over 4 hours painfully sticking over 1000 stars to a long black top, all over my arms and face, in spirals up my leggins and then in my back too! I then created a marvellous star headband and boom I was done! Ele started off as wanting to be fireworks, however we soon found that her hundred of plastic drinking straws she had bought were more suited to a strange neon 80's version of the statue of liberty - age even made a torch and a book! Anne and Camilla went for hawian and rainbow themes whilst jade decended into creating a battlefield on herself using toy soldiers and lipstick for blood as an interpretation of being in the army, and very good it looked too! She had proper stories for who was killing who and what happened to that guys leg and everything! (yes she actually snapped a soldiers leg off for authenticity!) mark went for the classic peter pan look whilst dave, after ele sewed patches onto his boobie flaps to look less um flappy, made for a very convincing gay wrestler :p and then there was chris. His secret masterpiece finally came to light when in walks osama bin laden complete with turban, sunglasses, beard and robe - absolutly bloody brilliant! To be honest I think the tone for the party was pretty much set, throw in $10 wine and your done!
The funniest part, apart from everyone elses costumes ranging from pedaphile priests to chavs with babies and nuns, and apart from sword fights withrandom impliments and Les joining in on the dance floor, was looking through the photo albums that included every kiwi bus group ever to have come through those doors, all group photos of everyone in costume and all dated so you knew how far back it went, well, taking a little gander through ones a couple years back and what do I find?! Bloody Rob and his group when they were there!! It was so surreal to see a picture of him from years ago doing the exact same thing I was doing that night! Crazy infact! But pretty damn cool to know that the legacy of these nights survives ready for that unsuspecting person to suddenly find proof you were there :) then again, having to take the same group picture on 30 different peoples cameras us also very bloody annoying! Precious drinking time people, hello?!
3am and countless drinks and photos later we all just kinda passed out, twas to be expected after all... :p
