"THE 200-hectare field near Ararat was meant to be the place where the dreams of two young brothers came to life. Instead, the music festival they staged there on the weekend of September 18 has become the stuff of nightmares, leaving behind a trail of debt and, for the brothers, death threats."

haha looool i thought the same thing

The likeness is uncanny.

unrelated: my phone predictive text says 'rapey' when i try to write 'screw'

oh my.

Still. Screwy Mo Collier has a certain ring to it.

mebbe u guys can beer w/ me tomorrow nite

^ feelin this

i've been beer free since sunday

so gettin THIRSTY

loooool

i know a couple ppl who went to that fest, basically said it was a shambles

i can understand why

I'm thinner and better looking than that dude, you'll be hearing from my lawyers.

ps: last time I was in Ararat was when I was 12, on the way to school camp in the Grampians (was living in Bendigo at the time you see)

an ex of mine (from '93) lived in bendigo. went there to visit. haven't been back since.

always used to confuse it with ballarat

ballarat is its dull but better dressed bigger sister

Farmer David Powne is out of pocket by about $20,000 for hire of his paddock and associated earthworks. Like many businesses The Age spoke to, he was paid half initially, with the promise of the rest at festival's end.

Tristan Gray even wrote a cheque for the outstanding amount, but when Mr Powne attempted to cash it, it bounced.

Mr Powned

Ballarat is even lamer and duller, at least Bendigo has a charming weird lurking-serial-killers-in-the-night vibe.

In any case, these days I only seem to visit Bendigo whenever a family member dies.

am going there for $mas this year

would beer tonight or tomorrow, prolly shud write essay tonight though...

got poker night at work 2nite.. it will probably be a rerun of that night i played poker with u guys & tone

an ex of mine (from '93) lived in bendigo. went there to visit. haven't been back since.

I misread this as "hasn't been seen since".

those shallow bush graves on the Calder are a bit misleading

Never been there mself, and the last time I was in Ballarat the lake still had water in it.

I wonder if you can freak out young ballaratians with "omg WE HAD A LAKE HERE ONCE!?" or something.

there used to be boat races and everything. it was the best day of the school year.

the only better day was the swimming carnival (chix in cossies)

I hated swimming carnival day. I can't swim, but they'd force everyone to go in SOMETHING, "oh go on, be a sport, you can do it!" and it was always way too cold because Canberra's summer is weird and short and everyone was a cruel bogan and I always got sunburned.

I came 4th place in a 100m dash at the athletics day once tho.

There were only 4 people in the race, but you know.

lool

i was a pretty good swimmer, but i've always had a pot belly. now i am too unfit.

I'm too afeared of water in the ears. I used to love being in the pool or the surf but I was never a good swimmer at all.

I was bloody good at gymnastics and rollerskating tho, til I got the Fear and stopped in about yr 10.

i went swimming a coupla times @ the brunswicky pool

i had to relegate myself from the slow lane to 'aqua play' ;__;

(last summer)

when you cried in the aqua play section did you deny it and blame your red eyes on the chlorine.

had goggles on - nowhere to hide on this one

o-o
; ;

ahahaha

i won no poker hands :(

so anyway who is this bertie blackman, other than being some random babe?

is she famous and/or talented?

she sounds like one of those attitude-laden serious pop girls inna lol roux style

according to 30 secs of song on her website at least

interesting..

normally i wouldn't give hoot but she is hott+f.mac fan

also why are we up at 3am

i saw another one i hadn't heard of the other week while flipping channels - 'Holiday Sidewinder'?? that's not even a name!!

xp lol i went out 4 drinx

haha me 2

bedtime i think

is holiday sidewinder liek international velvet or ingrid superstar

ugh why does vodka always make me depressed

I'm depressed too, though I cant entirely blame the heap of wine I drank last night.
