I was actually rather gutted I couldn't attend this, you know.
'I enjoyed your commentary on spelling in today's Green Guide, especially since I help run a Gippsland-wide spelling competition just
about to complete its third year. Yes, 'Spellbound' was gripping and
Hotspell isn't. The formula doesn't work, does it?
If your raptures over spelling are more than journalese hyperbole I
would like to invite you to say a few words at the Gippsland Provincial Final at the Latrobe City offices 34-38 Kay St Traralgon. This will feature the best spellers from 7 Gippsland Shires from Years 5 to 8. It will run for approximately two hours. Please see attached press release.
As we are a non-profit organisation we cannot offer you accommodation or a limousine. We can pay for petrol and shout you lunch.'
That's right, people. I lead a fucking glamorous existence. DO YOU ENVY.
63 days til the next election.

You could have referred all the Year 8 kiddies to your site, and thus become the star of the government's next round of advertising about the dangers of the interwebs!
Oh well, there's always next year.
I've MADE IT!
Thus you are much envied.
Happy dance everyone.
I reckon the Liberals have always been fucked, now a lot more people would seem to agree.
I just hope Kevin's mild mannered exterior is a ruse, and when he finds a convenient polling booth, he will cast off his glasses, tear open his tied-down shirt and reveal a red jumpsuit beneath, becoming Super Lefty.
Then I sober up.
Oh, sorry, Fits, I digressed from your post. Yes, I am jealous. Free lunch is increasingly rare these days, and offers of petrol are not to be sniffed at. Having once been a spelling champ at one of Melbourne's Green-threatened selective schools, I share a joy for correct spelling. In future, feel free to send me along as your proxy. The Latrobe valley is so lovely this time of year.
