Antons just trying to cash in on the whole 'middle english' trend thats taking off with the kids these days. Chaucer wrote fluent english until he discovered ICQ and MSN, and how to use sms on his 14th century Nokia. Then it all went downhill.

We were on that ad and then all was good for there on out. We're media whores.

Hopefully those who drunk will be able to balance in front of Mrs Howard (boom-tish). Seriously though, I think people are driving and if not we'll get a taxi. We can beg for money from the rich Killara kids.

The Gordon Club is a highly fashionable venue. Up there with Establishment. Italian designer rubgy uniforms only please. And no girlfriend named 'Shazza', no service. Sorry.

You know I don't know why I answered this. Boredom probably. That and the UAC, UNSW Union Treasury, UTS student enquries, eBay, Radio Rentals and various digital beta-cam conversion services. But who am I to complain.

Al Roker gives me seizures.
