RUGBY TOUR.. Kinsale 7's by the sea

If you asked a question you would get fined. If you made a stupid comment you would get fined. If you didn’t follow the rule book you would get fined. If you wore the wrong clothes you would get fined. So basically you could do whatever the hell you wanted but you would get away with nothing.
"THE GREAT ESCAPE KINSALE"
Prison break was the theme this year. We were allocated black and white striped jerseys and it was compulsory to wear these at all times. On the back of each jersey were code names, prisoners and prison guards had to be referred to by these names at all times otherwise liquid penalties would be distributed on the spot or at court that evening. My code name was Ned Kelly and I was in jail for daylight robbery i.e. I stole Connie Li’s (a Chinese boarders) single bed so I could join it with mine and make a double bed however I continued to fall between the Gap. And as stated in my blurb I am Gap obsessed so a generally whenever I was talking to a nice boy one of the fellow prisoners would yell out: “Mind Ned’s Gap.. You might fall in.”
Luckily I wasn’t the only Aussie on tour. Bold Jack i.e. Monica from W.A was a fellow Aussie prisoner. However being an Aussie and the youngest tourist by a long shot – still in my teenage years basically I was in for it. It was mandatory for me to wear a bib and carry a dummy for the whole of tour, which to my dismay I lost in the first 10 minutes of being on the Kinsale 7’s by the sea tournament pitches along with my whole swag bag which I later found out was stolen by Bridget which was retrieved on the return flight. We each had a bar of soap on the rope so it wouldn’t be dropped in the shower and this had to be on our wrists all the time except on the playing pitch. Our first two games were against Sweden and England... need I say more. On the second day we scored some tries and actually won a few games- playing with a hangover or even when still drunk was the trick!

The mighty Ned Kelly sometimes gets piles. She has a sticky temperament and likes bathing in honey. Been done up for fraud, fluffy dice laundering and indecent exposure. This ruthless character also violated an unsuspecting Chinese student. Ned is Gap obsessed. Has been caught discussing her Gap with minors and fell into a very large Gap (not her own) she still has scars to prove it. Please mind Ned’s Gap! This trisexual doesn’t do it with chairs but isn’t opposed to the odd settee. A hit with fellow inmates when doing the Nut bush with TimTams strapped to her Numnums.
The colander was my tour item that i had to carry with me at all times.. my head was the easiest place for it!!
