I have spent the last few days at a caravan park on the north coast of NSW and attended a few happy hours. Listening to some of the conversations I have thought of a great game, Happy Hour Bingo.
The goal is to mark off each of the following scenarios as they are introduced into the conversation. I have six for starters but I am sure more can or should be added. Here we go:
1. We are self funded retirees.
2. Our son/daughter is so important at his work place.
3. The grandkids are all geniuses. They are also exceptionally talented at (insert the name of sport) with the whole team depending on them.
4. (If they have a dog) The dog's father is an Australian champion
5. No matter where you may have visited, they have visited it before it became popular
6. Their former employer is unable to cope since the husband retired.
You should be able to mark these off in the first fifteen minutes without too much trouble. I am sure there are many more that can be added to this list.

I can account for none of those subjects.
Wed happy hour this week i'll hazard a guess none again, but state of origin will be the number one on the agenda.

Ain't that the truth. Great post, but those sorts of people would never include Grey Nomads! Yeah, right.
This is one of the reasons that I stay away from people, and free camp, preferably alone. Cheers

You might be in a bit of trouble Latrell out, the chin has a sore tooth, Turbo will get nailed and go missing for the rest of the game and Teddy will miss a couple of tackles leading to try's.
Oh and the jumper what can you say dark blue, you would never see Qld change color of their strip.
