Melbourne Cup fun

Had a Melbourne Cup function at work today, naturally… tables full of snacks, and finger foods, plus beer. Good stuff: little pastries and prawns and sandwiches and breads and dips, that kind of thing.
Most of the entire afternoon went to the party of course… and the race was five minutes. I do love Australian traditions
And while I put some tiny bets on a got nothing, somehow I did win one of the work sweeps! For a measly $2 I picked up $30 since I got Shocking as my random selection. It’s been years since I won one of these things. Good stuff!
Dinner’s on me… or something
