A local man has this weekend had matters taken out of his hands.
In some welcome good news from our town’s pebblecrete utopia of Betoota Heights, Nathan Lawson has been saved from himself, by some of his nearest and dearest.
This comes after the local chippy was confiscated of his keys during the later hours of last night – after proving to the boys that he wasn’t performing at his best.
While not normally one to set the pool table alight, it was a rather subpar effort in the 3rd game of the night that caused the crossroads.
Nathan was called out for being quite ‘performance de-hanced’ shortly after 9:30pm, following an attempted pool shot that completely and utterly missed the cue ball.
Fresh off the back of knocking the top off a glass sandwich, Nathan immediately lashed out at his bald mate for being ‘the actual cue ball.’
However, after previously drawing attention to himself for the befuddling decision to drive to the pub session that was inevitably going to escalate given the calibre of friends in attendance, Nathan had to face the music.
“That’s a foul shot, and give me your keys you muppet,” said one of Nathan’s mates.
“You literally live a 10 minute walk down the road. Or you can get a lift when the cheese and kisses picks me up,” said his mate, to Nathan’s meek protestations.
“Try and wipe out the pool table instead of someone trying to get home ya peanut.”
“Without tearing the pool table carpet,” laughed another one of his mates.
“Be a bit street smart big fella.”
