In Victoria we get a public holiday for a horse race :P

The Melbourne Cup has been run since 1861 and gets a crowd of about 150,000 to watch it live.

I think about 145,000 of them get totally pickled and after the race meeting is over it looks like the aftermath of a huge party with people passed out all over the place.

You really wouldn't like to resemble the pouty Brook Shields clone modelling that dress would you?

Looks like a starving stick insect.

The average dress size in Australia is 16.

Odviously that is what nature intended.

Quite like my curves, but wouldn't mind losing a couple of pounds and toning up a few muscles, 10cm longer legs would be a dream! So much easier to buy trousers that fit then!! We all have some bits we're less than happy about, but all in all I'm not complaining!!
