What, what? Chuckers Anyone? A lovely weekend indeed, in a periodical sense. Friday evening began at the oldest pub in Sydney, the Lord Nelson, moved to The Customs House Bar. The remainder of the night was spent at the beer soaked New South Wales Rugby Leagues club, where yours truly is a member, and enjoys the benefits of paying less than $3 for a schooner of Resches. Needless to say, we didn't stay too late, as many of our party (I will not mention names for protections sake, but let's just say that someone lost their handbag in a bit of a stupor). Saturday was for recovery, and I had a fantastic Duck Confit at Onde, which has never failed me. Their specials and staple fare are done so well (their polenta is to die for) and even though they seem to be very busy most of the time, they always seem to be able to find you a table. For those in Sydney, Onde is located in Darlinghurst at 346 Liverpool St Darlinghurst, Sydney and it has Seppo's stamp of approval. After trying to make it to a birthday party and finding that Mars Lounge had a line out the door, me, Konky and Mrs. Konky decided to head to the old stand by, Soda Bar at the Golden Sheaf Hotel. 
Sunday Konky, and I were off to the Polo at Windsor, chin chin, what what... We had the pleasure of the company of the lovely Ms. P. of Sothebys, who seems to have a penchant for polo players. I suppose it's hard for young ladies to resist the smoldering eyes of large men in white pants carrying mallets, while on a big STEED. Another couple joined us, who were very fun, until I realized that I seemed to be the only member of the group who hadn't partied with Prince Harry. We managed to get through a bottle of bubbly, two bottles of wine, a six pack of Budwieser and a six pack of XXXX Gold. On the way home, there were lively discussions of the fact that every polo player seems to be named Dick... which led to more speculation about Ms. P's infatuation. Plenty of Dick at the polo... hmmmm....
