A local man has drawn strong praise this week for his brave and stunning efforts after a day on the sauce.
Following a lunch at the pub turning into a long afternoon watching the cricket at the pub, Brisbane man Andy Thomas and a few mates decided to peel back to his place for a feed and a couple of beers out the back.
With the shit talk nearly at shouting levels in his 2 bedder terrace house, and no food in anyone’s bellies, Andy decided to make a captain’s call – and a better one than Tony Abbott’s infamous Knighthood.
Andy fired up the dog and bone to the good people at his local Pizza Hut, who the local bachelor seems to know on a first name basis, and decided to sort out some supper for the hungry session.
With a couple of mates sussing out why the big fella was making an actual phone call, a few words of advice were thrown his way with strong requests for certain pizzas.
However, deciding to trust his gut and lead from the front, Andy called in a couple of BBQ Meatlovers, a couple of BBQ Chickens and a Schnitzza for good measure as well.
Hitting the spot with the perfect drinking order, he then managed to think quickly on his feet after remembering that his pizza friends now deliver grog too.
“A six pack too please, if you’d be so kind,” he laughed, averting the session from deteriorating into flat coke and left over vodka levels.
Hanging up the phone, the young man told The Advocate that sometimes you just have to rise to the occasion.
“Someone’s got to fucking get it together,” he said to our humble regional newspaper.
“If I didn’t, we’d have spent 10 minutes arguing about Thai or vegetarian pizzas”
“So I just made the executive decision. Food and a bit of grog on top from Pizza Hut, sorted.”
“Greatness is not a destination I was born at, it’s a destination that I have worked to achieve and to set up camp at.”
