The constellations have aligned. My family (on my Mum’s side) are staying at Rotto for a week, and then the day after they leave, my friends come over for a week.
Over the next fortnight I will go snorkelling, bike riding, jetty fishing, boat fishing, beer fishing, playing radio rummy, playing taboo, getting intoxicated, verandah cricket, perving at the beach, drinking at the pub, Brett Heady mini golf and air hockey.
I’ll be staying with 26 people: Alastair, Beth, Eugene, Jack, Jimmy, Jonesy, Fiona, Granddad, Grandma, Hannah, Margie, Maria, Mark, Matt, Melissa, Mum, Nick, Pete, Peter, Richard, Rolf, Ruhamah, Sophie, Tim, Tone, and Vinnie. Phwoar!
Combining lost earnings and money spent on the trip, I will be over three thousand dollars worse off. It would be a bargain at twice the price.
