caveat - I am quite normal, in person

 

[GrumpyPaul]

Campsite organised and tickets booked.

Will be heading up Friday arvo. Dinking homebrew in the camp ground Frid Night. Festival all day Sat - god only knows where we will end up Sat Night. (last time it was Karoake night at the Peter Lalor Hotel).

If you see a short bald bloke wearing a "Grumpy Old *******" t-shirt - thats me, say hello.

Had a practice session last night with my Xmas swap beers.

Apparently voices and bad language travels at night in a caravan park.

This morning we received a stern talking to from park management.

Swap beers and aldi tasting paddles = winning
