Pre-Tempest picnic at the botanical gardens (Corinne, Karen, Stuart, Sarah and Tim--Monique and Chy not pictured): a different (if mediocre) production starring whats-her-name from Neighbours and whats-his-feature from Pricilla and Strictly Ballroom. But with a few stubbies and some yummy food, completely worth it!

Speaking of food and drink in the Gardens, who can forget our fabulous trips to catch 'Joan of Arc' and 'Big Wednesday(?)' at the outdoor screen in the Domain? i'm sure some (ahem, Sarah--i mean Cape Girl) would rather forget!
Rule #1: do NOT make an extra trip to buy more wine--drink only what you brought when you were sober!

Chy's prayers were answered (well, not fully) when we saw Ewan McGregor drunkenly announce the winner of the best film at TROPFEST 2000! Corinne was freaking out as well--but not for Ewan. After all, we were only metres away from the one and only...Molly Ringwald! *GASP!* 1
