Hello again
Welcome to another edition of the SLF. What a big weekend it was with the party of the decade which I attended. Andrew "Clown" Newall was host of what was a cracker of an event. Please read on

Marnoo boys in form
Natives and ex natives provided all the entertainment at the 30th birthday bash as "Clowns" other no tiller friend could only look on shaking their heads in disbelief at some of the antics.

Farmer's sore wrist
Brian "Farmer" Healy was in very good touch and slapping plenty of backs, so much so that he now has a swollen wrist. I'm guessing has slapped one back to many

Belt goes too.....
I know you are all waiting to hear who won the belt, well this time I'm going to award it to a lady . Now it's not very often that a lady wins this award but when it happens you know they have gone out in style. Well the winner was Julia Nisbet. At one stage there she fell backwards and knocked over all the band equipment, to the bands credit he kept on playing.....the last time someone fell backwards into a band was back in 2005 when Nigel "Winebar" Slee did something similar

Smacka straps one on
Stewart "Smacka" MacPherson was back to his brilliant best as he donned the track suit and footy boots and belted out plenty of dance numbers that entertained the masses. Smacka has been absent from this column for some time now but it was great to see him back to his entertaining best

We know who wears the pants
Reuben "Rostron" Cheesman was in top form as you would expect but his "moment" happened before the event. You see he bought the dinner suit along but somehow bought the wrong pants along and they tuned out to be his wifes, the delightful Katrina better known as "Wifey". Not to be beaten Rueben tried the pants on and they actually fitted. He was heard throughout the night telling all that for once he got to wear the pants. It was short live though as the next day wifey told Rueben " right Rueben it's time to go we need to pick up the kids" without hesitation He jumped straight in the car. The pant were back on....

Nudie run
I missed it myself but there was a nudie run and it was played out by a former native who now resides in Melbourne. This person is a seasoned campaigner at this and I will leave you to work out who the offender was......Shouldn't be to (how) hard.

Masterclass
Gary "Larry" Cameron was also in good touch but saved the best for the Sunday. I'm told he entertained the small crowd with his very own Masterclass. His masterclass consisted of the boning out of a leg of lamb and I'm told he was absolutely hilarious.

Leftovers
Ben "Glendemar" Duxson and Derek "The Mayor" Cameron were absent and it was probably there fault that all the beer wasn't drunk. Clown said that there were five slabs left and if The Mayor and Benny had of attended it would have been consumed. Clown estimated that Ben might have drank 2 and The Mayor the other 3!!!!!

The seen was set...
We were a little dissapointed in Peter "Pete" Newall, the seen was set for him to strap on big one as the beer was free and he had the lovely Diane to drive. But he gave us nothing, sure wouldn't of happened in the olden days.

New PM
SLF Hall of Fame member John "Jack" Cameron is not a happy camper. You see he is not a Julia Gillard fan, her voice just irritates the he'll out of him. I haven't seen him this angry since the Paul Keating days.....

That's all
