Launceston Cup day, a half-day holiday. I remembered this when I was in town earlier, because half the shops were shut & there were groups of girls wobbling around in skimpy dresses and tiny hats. Also some walking around in skimpy dresses & sensible shoes but I didn't notice them until I started looking.

If I was bored, I could walk down to Mowbray in a bit and watch them staggering around with their hair over the face & shoes in hand trying to get a taxi home. I'm sure they're enjoying themselves :)
