Melbourne’s lawyers, surgeons and finance people have today received the first batch of good news since the coalition government’s election victory 10 days ago.
With the Melbourne Demons copping another hiding on the weekend, the 1% of our nation’s bohemian epicentre have been boosted by reports that a heavy dump has occurred on the snowfields.
“It’s fantastic news, and about time,” explained Glynn Edwards-Nottingly-Smith.
“With the euphoria and relief from the announcement that the tax concession loopholes for the upper class would receive conservation status starting to wear off, the huge snowfall up in the Alps is fantastic.”
“I’ve already told my firm I’m not coming in on Thursday and Friday, but they pretty much aren’t expecting anyone to be in,” said the corporate lawyer.
Edwards-Nottingly-Smith explained he was so mad about the Dee’s latest loss (to keep them well and truly in spoon contentions), that he was just about ready to burn the scarf he bought during their run to finals last year.
“Geez they’ve been bad,” explained the MCG member who before last season only saw games as a networking opportunity.
“So I’m glad that’ll get a chance to hit the slopes and enjoy my second favourite type of powder if you know what I mean,” he said before a burst of cringe-inducing laughter.
“Seriously though, we don’t actually have proper powder at Buller and Hotham like they do overseas but you get where I’m going with it.”
“Anyway, bring on the weekend.”
