I am currently ensconced on the Gold Coast and I am just about to head off and talk to the folks at the AIA. However, I find myself fitting right in with the tourist lifestyle. As proof of this I have photographed my breakfast, which does seem to be the default activity for people here. In fact this morning saw one women performing any and all manner of contortions with a selfie stick, a two year old and her breakfast, all with the aim of obviously sending said photograph to all unsundry.
Later in the day I plan to really get into the Gold Coast lifestyle by getting an inappropriate tattoo preferably, on my neck because nothing spells success as much as having No Regrets inked into ones neck. Following that I plan to have grandchildren and give them a remedial course in hanging around Cavill Avenue in a wife beater t-shirt followed by a quick trip to Centrelink.
Although cliched, several alternative tattoo options exist. The first is the barb wire around the bicep, the second is a dolphin on the ankle or just above the buttocks on your lower back.
A timeless statement that you can wear for ever, to go with your “no regrets”.
For a classy touch. Ensure all wordy tattoos are incorrectly spelled – Including those of the names of your own children
What – no eggs!
Barbed wire must be the top option as that is what Lachlan Murdoch has..
Enjoyed the “quick trip to Centrelink” bit. Centrelink staff (what’s left of them) understand that the longer they take to process payments enables the recipients to use up most of their day waiting and also gives them something to whinge about at the pub that night. But it got me thinking that if this trading caper doesn’t work out I could setup a portable tattoo stall outside said Centrelink office and sell tobacco and rollie papers on the side.
(Apologies to anyone reading this that is actually looking for a job while attending CL)
Mightily (un)impressed with the breakfast CT. Presentation isn’t everything on the Gold Coast, it would seem?
I have to admit the only joy I now get out of travelling is that some other bugger makes me breakfast.
I couldn’t imagine your first meeting your grand daughter’s date would go this cordially CT…
