Virgin V's Qantas

Gday lads (and ladies).

Not interested in talking about aviation garbage. The NAS, the us v's them tripe in here is about as much as my stomach can handle.

I have been talking to some QF and DJ mates about a competition with a slight difference. I used to do these years ago (not with much success but great fun all the same). It will have to be in Brisbane to start off with however transgression into another ZONE may be possible in the future.

We will start at the Breaky Creek hotel at 10.00am. All competitors will consume 1 (one) PINT "off the wood". We shall then run to the Hammo hotel (which is not that far away) and consume 1 pint of Guinness. We shall then run back to the breaky creek hotel (on the opposite side of the road to avoid swinging elbows etc) and consume one more pint of lager.

No regurgitation within 5 mins of arrival time back at breaky creek. On completion we can all sit down and tell each other what we think of each other (in a jocular fashion of course).

The competition will take place on THURSDAY 1ST APRIL (APRIL FOOLS DAY) 2004 and as stated at 10.00am. Shouldn't take the lowest common denominator more then 2 hours to finish before 12.

At Virgin we have a few lads who are more than qualified for this showdown, just as there are at QF. I would also like to extend a warm welcome to all the troops in GA in addition to engineering lads. Please feel free to join in.

You have 2 1/2 months to get in shape so get into it and hopefully we can extract some new talent for future discussion.

(Hope the username doesn't put you off) Cheers. (Slainte).
