... Mr Brown announced a pending visit to the unspeakably vulgar Gold Coast, for work-related purposes, this weekend.
He suggested I might come along.
"Erk, why on earth would I want to go there" was my reply.
"Because we'll be staying HERE" was his response.
"Also, dining HERE".
"Also, there are SPAS at which you will need to entertain yourself while I do important, businessy things".
He knows me so well.
"Oh, ok then" *wonders to self how to manage sneaking out one of those amazingly overpriced, ridiculous status plates without getting arrested* (because I'm not bloody buying one).
We will not be going to any of THESE (another reason to be thankful for our loin-fruit-free status).
Just as a by-the-by, is anyone else having trouble with the spell-check and pic upload butons at the mo?

Ooooooh!
My browser got so excited looking at all the pretty places, it quit on me!
It all looks quite marvelous.
What makes The Gold Coast unspeakably vulgar? Or does my asking the question prove something unpleasant about me???
;o)

The last conference the husband had to attend was at Sanctuary Cove. I burst into tears.
Then we negotiated staying elsewhere that was NOT a resort, as I get bored at them and there's nothing to do.
I like being able to walk places. I *hate* being confined.
Although there's always the shuttle *shudder*
Have fun ! :)
oooo, funnage! This is what makes the GC bearable - I hope you like it luvvie.
If one is wearing a ball gown, I'd suggest the best way to smuggle a plate is down your cleavage - but choose a small side plate, dear one, not a dinner plate. I once smuggled an entire cutlery set down my cleavage at a rugby ball, followed by a bread and butter plate.
Looks great, have lots of pampered fun!
What's wrong with the Gold Coast? It looks nice.
Lee - it's an Australian thing - the GC is all a bit new money, spangly, tacky, tanned and full of theme parks. I guess it’s sort of a mix of Florida, Vegas, and a strip mall. Only much smaller and no where near as much to do.
H&B, resorts are not really my thing either. However, doing nothing at all but lie around reading books and being fed rather nice meals is heaven, for a couple of days at least. I’d taken two lovely books and the two latest Vanity Fairs, bliss.
Caw, I did consider sneaking out one of the salt & pepper things but the frock was a bit close fitting, I’d have looked very odd no matter where I’d sneaked it!
E, I did have “my” kind of fun, right up until the food poisoning bit.
Mr G, hmmmmmm.
