The next day I’m sitting in a coffee shop reading the Sunday Telegraph. AIright, I’ll admit I was a bit hungover and just looking at the pictures. There was a beautiful pickie of Bondi swimmers, I think I even picked out my cleavage in the crowd. Hang on. I think that’s two bald men. No, there I am, in my black g-string smoking a ciggie. Eek!
