After a late arrival, and the changing of the baton of the suspect package to the next DC host, all things settled to a zen sumo of cordial discussion of many things - including that of the fine aromas wafting from Renata's new bag. It was not the double smoked roasted venison we had hoped (yes, even in a sushi place), but to the known delight of Renata, it was the sexy insence of the leather bag she had picked up at Target that weekend.
She was happy that her bag got all the attention in the opening stanza's of DC 2009!
Renata's blissfull existence lasted momentarily though - the blizzards of Mt Fuji made there way to Hall st eventually forcing Renata to switch places with Ojas. Not before the food sailed in and docked itself handsomely on the ocean of that fine japanese table!
Entrees got lost in the black hole of Imagery as i had forgotten my duties of host and of reporting the events of the evening. Only because of the stern voice of Past President Ojas that i flipped open my Crackberry to take notes and pictorial representations of the evening.
Bethanie spoke of Personal Training. We all gasped.
Oliver spoke of Spice Temple for the mid year gala in Sydney. We all agreed and jumped with glee and a twinkle of Joy for the migration of all our bank balances into Neil's. Presidentress Bethanie vowed to confirm dates and get the ball rolling in fullfillment of her Presidential duties.
At that time Renata was still cold and Clair was as content as a Geisha on Grey St (St Kilda) negotiating japanese tofu with her chopsticks.
Ojas was really keen. He loved that octopuss. He spoke of cricket. We tuned out.
After a few Asahi's and some raw fish and a dribble of red bean and green tea ice cream, the first DC of 2009 was complete and almost on budget.
Happy Days.
what a great find
