Jake's 'Formal' - Brisbane Grammar School 2010

To the Brisbane Convention Centre for the 'Pre' Formal.
Jake & Grace.

Having paid an astronomically large sum of money to the Grammar Schools for 4 lots of school fees x 5 years I was told that they were only serving soft drinks at the Pre and I'd have to go downstairs to another bar to get myself a glass of something!

Fortunately a lot of parents regrouped at 'Era' restaurant where thirsts were quenched.

Fri. 3rd Sept. The 'Valentino Retrospective' at GOMA

To the Brisbane Gallery of Modern Art to see the collection of Valentino designs.

It was very impressive. Superb art, almost sculpture - plus the social cachet of who had been wearing these pieces.
