These dinners of ours, you will normally see the good, the bad and the ugly. Well this night we only had the bad and the ugly - REAL UGLY DAVE.
With the theme of BAD TASTE, it allowed for some imagination to come up with different outfits that put the B in bad. We had cowsuits, we had 90's clothing, we had pyjamas, Power supporters , a giant orange smurf - I think that was what you were Rudi, Ford fans from the 70's, a pregnant chick and assorted bad choices in clothing. But it was a giant green brussell sprout (Karen McConnell - who else), a "Colourful (light fingered) Character" in Bob 'Clayton' Butler and this other "Thing" that brought tears to your eyes in Mizz Dave Schrapel that made the night another hilarious and entertaining affair for all that were there.
It started with the waitresses picking 2 men while taking orders for tea, for the early prizes (The SEXIEST BALD HEAD). John Sturm won the 1st prize of a bald man's comb. Rob McConnell took 2nd & got a quick makeover with a blonde wig (mullet style).
Karen McC & Dave S took out the best outfit awards as voted by the waitress's yet I'm sure those poor young innocent girls will now require some kind of therapy if they had the misfortune of seeing Dave try and touch his toes - You had to be there!
Peter & Lynda had organised plenty of raffle prizes, 2 great silent auctions ('64 split window afghan throw & '68 L88 model) and a donation box for Bob's Dry July fundraising drive.
The other prize winners were picked by matching the jokes written on the back of the placemats to those that were randomly read out by CLAYTON. The winners then chose a wrapped, bad taste parcel. This revealed arse/face soap, pecker enlarging soap (you get the idea).
Once again the venue was the Hilton Hotel and once again, the staff there really looked after us. Meals were great and the service terrific. As usual, Peter & Lynda had done the majority of the organising and as usual, they put so much effort and thought into the night so we all would have such a great time. From the club, A HUGE THANKYOU guys for another great night.
