My old stamping grounds

It's been a very long time since I went back to my old school......

Years in fact.

Seems odd..... having gone to boarding school, I spent almost all my time there. To have so little interaction with it still feels a bit strange at times.


It was time to go back though.

My brother, Bryce and I needed to go back to say some goodbyes.

The old school Chaplain had decided it was time to give up teaching and preaching to the students. Instead, he'll be headed back out to look after a small parish in rural NSW.

Father Rex is a good man and we felt we needed to say goodbye.

While we were there.... we also said goodbye to Tini. She's retiring and heading off to warmer weather!
It was very strange walking through the halls again.

Everything felt so different.....

Even the students look smaller...

Goodbye Oliee... Fliss....

Next in line to leave are Oliee and Fliss....

They're both going to Ireland to work and live for a while..... who knows when they'll be back?

For his farewell, Oliee wanted a specially themed party!

SPACE PIRATES!!!!

Now.... I wasn't too keen on this, so I decided to put my own spin on it.

Instead of a space-pirate, I dressed up as a space-COWBOY!

Ting helped me to do my makeup. Look at the thunderbolt! Does it look familiar?

It really should! I'm ZIGGY STARDUST!
Everyone was nicely dressed up.... thought I'm not completely sure as what.

We even had time to break out a few poses.
.... maybe more than just a few.....
Look how shiny Emma's stockings are.
Everyone was having fun... the drinks were flowing and people were generally running around.
.... but then....
Things started getting a bit weird.....
Stead had shown up wearing a bondage outfit (Pirate???)
And Matt found a leash.....
While Matt was busy with Stead.... a few of us decided to get busy with his girlfriend Jess.....
... and then things went from weird to outright gay....
Cowboy Matt and I decided to go brokeback on one another.
Strauchy didn't want to be left out.
... and Dan then had his way with Todd.
... the rest of the night is a bit of a blur....

Moving house..... again.....

Well it's goodbye to the crack den......

I'm moving house.... again.......

It's been fun... but it's time to go......
A small place, but oh so conveniently located.
