From the sublime to the ridiculous

SUMMER BALL

June 9th, 2002 Posted in Uncategorized

I cruised up to Oxford yesterday for my sister’s university summer ball, armed with tuxedo’s that were blatantly too small for me, as I found out later when I realised why people were pointing and laughing at me.

Anyway, a good time was had by all. We drunkenly drove the dodgems, had a quick crack at poker and spent far too much time in the beer tent. As we were leaving, staff handed us carrier bags full of ‘hangover cure’. The contents were: an orange, a packet of crisps, a bottle of water, a miniature packet of Cheerios and a cabbage which, unfortunately, served as a good football for those trying to emulate their World Cup heroes. AND, when I woke the next morning, head thumping and barely able to see, I uttered the words “where’s my cabbage?” and laughed myself back to sleep.

QUOTE OF THE DAY
Sophie C: “the doctor said I have to gradually stop taking these pills”
Jonola: “oh right, how do you do that?”
Sophie C: “he said to try taking one every other day, and then maybe one every two days…..”

    Ah HA. That’ll explain the “where’s my cabbage” text message this morning then…
