Night of the Hen's



From what I can gather/remember the Hen's Night went swimmingly. All of the components required to indicate success were there. The Hen herself puked and passed out before 9.30. Two women slept in the garden others passed out on every available flat surface. Another good friend vomited all over the inside of her car when her husband came to collect her. The shower screen fell on a girls head while she was powdering her nose and drew blood - a rush to hospital for stitches was neccesitated. The question I had to ask myself at this point was - are we 30something year old , sophisticated women of the world? or 19 year old boys on schoolies week?
Apart from all of the chaos and destruction there was also significant amounts of dancing , singing and general merriment. The boys did very very well in their jobs as cocktail providers (obviously in some cases a little too well) The crowd was a pretty demanding one - their thirst not quenched until consciousness failed them - so under such pressure our boys stood up to the challenge. At one point , with the stripper being over an hour late, I thought there was risk of a drunken riot , but our stalwart bar boys even managed to quell this.
Personally , I am still recovering. My body is sore, my eyes in need of long term closure. I couldn't face a bacardi right now for love nor money. Resting time this week, all ready for the BIG EVENT this weekend - the wedding itself.
