After the final whistle, I was invited out to go spotlighting. Eh? Where? In such-and-such a block. But that’s public land, says I. And you’re shitfaced.
Yeah so what. And off they went.
I went and spent the night out the back of the pub. Caught up with the same bunch the next morning at the pig weigh in, they were looking pretty rank and hungover. Good pigs though, lots of real big ginger boars. And a two utes with trays full of deer...
