Groovy Girls

The annual Groove and Grape Festival was held this weekend. It's where all these Queensland wine makers come to share their wine and different bands play. This was the first time I had been in 2 years as I'm normally studying this time of year. So Kel and I started our taste test.



Julie then came on board with Brody and a collection of other people. The drinks kept flowing and we heard some awesome bands. The final act of the night was Paul Mac who was outstanding. We all headed to the dance floor to shake our groove things!



It ended and we decided to go into the Valley for some more dancing. Brody and I decided we would start in the Valley Mall so started dancing towards it. Brody went to dip me but didn't quite catch me and I feel to the ground with a thud. In fact I had split my head open.

This happened out the front of the Police Station so I was attended to there. They told me to go to hospital so off in the ambulance I went. Kelly came in the ambo and Jules and Brody came up in the rear in a cab. Needless to say I was glad I had had a few drinks otherwise I'm sure I would have been in a hell of a lot more pain. Despite all the drama I could keep a smile on my face though.



So after 3 hours, a lengthy discussion on whether stitches were needed and some glue to glue my head back together we finally left at 2am. I woke up this morning and have had a bad headache all day. I know I will be in a world of pain tomorrow so have just accepted that.

The one good thing to come out this, actually 2, Kel picked up a guy in the hospital - that's my girl!! And I have finally clued on to the evils of alcohol. This may in fact be enough for me to chance my ways. Yep, the lesson is if you drink and dance you're a bloody idiot!
