thursday 1 Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 I suspect there'll be a lot of drinking. Link to post Share on other sites
keba 0 Posted January 21, 2009 Author Share Posted January 21, 2009 I was think more along the lines of something that won't be going on every night. Link to post Share on other sites
pie-eater 207 Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 Perhaps people will NOT DRINK that night, and just celebrate in a sober and majime way. Yes, that's what'll happen. Unless of course it will just be more of a piss up than a normal night! Link to post Share on other sites

keba 0 Posted January 22, 2009 Author Share Posted January 22, 2009 We are down in Kutchan too for Oz day (thanks to GN again). There must be some way to have a VB/XXXX/Foster's or two there without fighting spilling onto the streets? Link to post Share on other sites

Go Native 70 Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 It's just another excuse for Aussies to have a piss up. Link to post Share on other sites

foreversnow 5 Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 How was Australia Day in Niseko. Hopefully no street brawls or to many out of control Australians. Great here in Oz everyone was out having bbq's, playing cricket, nearly every second car had Australia Flags Flying. We celebrated with Vegemite on Toast for Breakfast, Went down to the beach with the dog, had a beer and Pie (with tomato sauce) for lunch and A Lamb Chop for Dinner with another beer and a lamington for dessert. Can't get more Australian than that. Kanpai!! Link to post Share on other sites
scouser 4 Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 Any hangovers this morning? Perhaps the slopes will be empty? Link to post Share on other sites
Nisoko 6 Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 Had one or two beers. Feeling a little drowsy this morning. I wouldn't be surprised if the resort was a bit quieter than usual this morning. Link to post Share on other sites

Overall though people have been pretty well behaved this year. Link to post Share on other sites
