You are to be commended Trent. When everyone else was battening down the hatches in response to the severe weather warning last night, you kept on partying by the pool. While I was unplugging all the electronic equipment and frantically searching for candles and spare batteries, it was business as usual at your place, wasn’t it? Although jumping in the pool fully clothed at 10pm wasn’t one of your better ideas, especially since you yourself noticed the chill in the air. Do you know I could even hear you in the shower? That comment you made about being warmer in the pool than getting out of it, as well as the reference to shrinkage in certain parts of your anatomy, made me chuckle. The rumble of distant thunder and the occasional crack of lightning didn’t faze you and it’s a good thing too. We all aspire to be like you, Trent (minus the shrinkage). Maintaining and fuelling a swimming pool, outdoor bar and 57 Bali torches is no mean feat, especially when you have no visible means of support. I hope your jacket is OK and didn’t get damaged by the chlorine. I particularly enjoyed your take on the New Zealand accent. In terms of casual entertainment, saying ‘cuzzie bro’ and finding a way to use the word ‘six’ in the same sentence is always a winner. Ah, the Kiwi accent is comedy gold that never gets old, in my opinion. Anyway, when searching for batteries and candles, I also came across several craft items that gave me some innovative ideas for lifestyle aids around the neighbourhood. I found some goggles, a swimming cap and a fake Groucho Marx moustache. Well of course it was fake, I wouldn’t have Groucho’s actual moustache in my dress-up box would I? So you should probably just disregard the reference to fake. Let’s just pretend I said fake moustache similar to that worn by the funniest Marx brother. Since I was awake till the last stubby bottle dropped three inches into your recycling bin, I decided to make you a swimming cap /goggle combo with an amusing twist. I’m hoping there’s another storm warning tonight because I covered the whole thing with aluminium foil and attached a makeshift lightning rod to the top with Velcro dots. Should be good for a great laugh when you’re ready to get back into the pool on a stormy night. Once again, thanks for an amusing evening. I went to sleep with a smile on my face and a goose down pillow wrapped around my head and secured with an 80s style piano key tie.
