My family is so fucking wierd and wired. Last night was the celebration dinner for my uncles 60th and if it was a prelude for Christmas then we are in for an interesting day on Sunday. There is so much latent hostility that at the reasonably fancy chinese restaurant, when a fight broke out at a nearby table, just about every one at our table who are all normally models of good manners and under normal circumstances would look away, burst into hysterical loud laughter, and i'm sure we were all silently projecting the same thought...'better them than us' as the drunken aggressor was being wrestled outside. It was completely cringeworthy and crass, yet utterly hysterical and the whole night seemed to follow suit.
I'm making sure i'm well clear of the lot of them by boxing day.

I think we should definitely revive the idea of an Adelaide hook-up in the new year...if you survive your Christmas that is!
(I couldn't resist, I ate the Cadbury's Roses...not quite how I remember them)
