A happy Christmas day out for those without family in Melbourne, and those who would rather have been without.
From: David Gerard [SMTP:fun@thingy.apana.org.au] Sent: Sunday, December 17, 2000 4:30 PM Subject: Orphans' Christmas Picnic Nicky and David have decided to comfort the poor starving workhouse children of Melbourne with an orphans' Appropriated Pagan Festival Picnic. (Some of you have families, but we've invited you anyway, because we need SOME meat with our gruel. *smooch*) This star studded (you lot) gala event is to be held in Fitzroy Gardens, near the smaller rotunda (the one the ACG meets tend to be) on Christmas Afternoon->Evening. Meet there at (say) 4pm, which should give you time to sleep off the debaucheries of Christmas Eve and/or get the hell away from your f*m*ly do. Bring food and drinkies and toys and the cute bit o' trash from the night before and camera and lovely clothes (we expect your finery dammit) and anything else that occurs to you. Remember to buy your drinkies in quantity the day before, to avoid unforeseen difficulties. If there is someone who hasn't received this that we've foolishly neglected, or couldn't find the email address for in a hurry, please pass it on to them as well. We'll be posting this to aus.culture.gothic just to be sure. xxxxxxxxx David & Nicky
