Alice Diary - Day 7

Day 7 - The Spit

Day 7 started with a quick review of who got the least sleep. Several contenders claimed late nights saying I got to bed at 2:00am. This group of non-achievers were dismissed with derision, by the 3:00am contenders. This group was also smacked out of contention. The 4:00am smugly stepped up only to have there claim wiped out, by a single bull who managed to return at 4:30am. According to information provided by the bull, it was the getting of the taxi that took the time, with the bull giving up on the taxi and walking the Todd with 3 lads from the Darwin Bulldogs hockey team.

Today's game was a 1:15pm start so the bulls spent a quiet morning regaling each other with tales of there dancing and drinking prowess.

The game against the Weasels, was yet another forgettable game. The bulls went down 16-5. Martin Froggy Foster was our starting pitcher and rotated through the order twice, before the ball was tossed to Erecta-bull to close out the innings. Untama-Bull threw a 3 up, 3 down in the second dig. Gooley and Lucas also pitched quality innings.

From an offensive perspective, we scored more than 4 runs, which was good. Zulu, Vino, Responsor-Bull, Unpredicta-Bull and Texta-Bull all got hits.

	1	2	3	4	5	6	R	H	E
Bulls	2	1	1	1	-	-	5	5	1
Weasells	14	0	0	2	-	-	16	15	2

The game over the bulls retired to Toddy's to prepare for the evenings meal. Spita-Bull was preparing the lambs on a spit, Wendy was supplying the salads and the bulls would wash up.

The Cubs from Sydney would also be joining us, along with several friends and players from other sports. All-in-all we had about 100 people enjoying Spita-bulls excellent roast.

The night was also the inaugrual "Bad Shirt and Tie Night". There were some "fabulous combinations" and some of these came out of current wardrobe. Norm "Untamable" Sluga had a delightful pnk shirt with a mismatched tie. The winner of the night was not annouced. Invisi-bull suggests you check the pictures and make you our decision.

Spita-Bull produced yet another fine feast of spit roasted lamb. Everyone, including the Cubs had there fill, then continued to chat well into the night.

The night finished late with yet another Bull ring (reformed after the bar closed) keeping the patrons at Toddy's awake until the early hours. Zulu's tactics for hampering the opposition were enlightening and entertaining.

Coach Watts, trying to provide light entertainment, slipped the rubber snake into Networka-bulls bed hoping to elicit screams in the early hours. Unfortunately for Watta-Bull, AJ found the snake and used it during the night to Stop Drink-abull arguing with himself in his sleep.

The night drew to a close at about 3:00am
