Well I have my first 'strayla day overseas two days ago!
 
I am in whistler, BC Canada which is over run with aussie seasonal workers.
 
It was an epic day, there was coopers, I had a photo of me taken in the Australian two man bobsled, I was walking round with a gold singlet with Australia written on it, and a 'roo and the southern cross printed on it, over my parka.
 
I then discovered that cider is the canadian equivilent of passion pop, and that you don't have goon here.
 
There was however bottles of coopers everywhere which i got into and I spent most of the night in some pub/club getting my dance on.
But the winters coming,

And the snow will cover tracks,

And I'll be watching,

Because I'm hunting you

We had an awsum Strayla day at Mt Washington, tim tam slams, Aussie burgers, VB and Coopers. We watched a lil bit of Kath and Kim, then did some Aussie versus Canuck trivia.
 
I must have Drank a case of VB and a half dozen Coopers
If all else fails call in a MOAB and call it a day

Have a Nice Day
If already having a nice day please disregard
