Operation Aussie Out

Luke has been my new Aussie mate at work, but with slowing down, the office did not renew his 2 year work visa so he had to go. He did end up working for another architecture firm where his girlfriend works within just a week or so of leaving here. We were all sad to see him go, it will not be the same going down to the first floor printer for a bit of banter. So in true OMP fashion we had to send him off proper. We headed to Dicey Riley's, not one of our regular places for once, which had a great outside beer garden area, dancing and stiff drinks. Good combination.

Tullia and I headed in late so the lads could get a head start on us and maybe we could keep up into the wee hours of the morning. Luke was having me try all sorts of whiskies since that is what I drink. Needless to say, several drinks later I was tearing up the dance floor for the next few hours. There was a small group of us that made it to the very end. I had one of the lads escort me part of the way home since I was so hot from dancing and a bit of a walk is good before heading in for the night especially when it is not a rainy night! I tucked myself into bed by 4:00 and was the superstar back up by 8:00 to make it into work to let everyone in. Lucuzade to the rescue to get me through that next day!
