Time for some more photos. Saturday night we attended a comedy show at The Forum in Melbourne with Aitch and Robyn's sister, Jo. There was better comedy OUTSIDE the theatre:-
Then we crossed the bridge towards Southbank for dinner:-
The girls came to Graham's rescue....

Last night we headed to our local Mexican restaurant, Montezumas, for dinner. Graham showed us his new toupee, ingeniously fashioned from a large lettuce leaf....
The waitress was certainly impressed.....
This was the final photo taken last night. We retired to the Trott residence after dinner, where a bottle of black Sambucca was produced. We forgot how to take photos shortly thereafter.

This morning's breakfast was a more sedate affair, at the beachfront at Parkdale. We thought up a dozen different captions for this photo, however none of them suited a public forum....
Graham and Aitch......
Robyn, Darren, Graham, Aitch.....please note....no alcohol to been seen (yet)

Great pictures, thanks for sharing. However, I'm of the belief that the last one must have been Photo-Shopped!

Great photos Darren.....i totally forgot my camera!!! Doh!!
Highlight of the day ,that reduced everyone to hysterics, was "Keith Moon's" appearance during a number of Who covers! I couldn't sing for laughing!
Special mention to Aitch for his awesome version of "Dear Prudence",lovely guitar work,backed by Graham Griffith on bass, and "Moonie" on drums! Shane McAlpine's opening riff on The Who track, "Substitute" was another jamtin magic moment!
Again,....great day, great people, great guitars.......and quite a few "trainwrecks!

Well Dave Pascoe arrived on April 1st........quite apt really

But Darren whisked him away for a bubble bath and some "quality" time oooooooooo0000000000ooooooooooo, so Aitch and I have amused ourselves at several bars!
Today we met up with Ron Viney and had a great little jam.......... I think Darren had a hair dressing appointment and Dave was still sleeping? We're all meeting up tonight for a Gig in Richmond and a beer or 2.........looking forward to it

Darren,
Is it just me or is that a really unfortunate name for a restaurant? I always associate Montezuma with the word "revenge" and the associated condition...

Well Darren and Dave had dinner at Melbourne's finest restaurant, Nobu. Myself and Aitch weren't at all upset that we weren't invited!

Graham, we were going to call you, but they had one of those "do not admit" photo's of you. Sorry!!
Perhaps next week.
Did you enjoy your romantic carriage ride home?
