luckily enough i happened to be working in the city again when the annual melbourne zombie shuffle occurred - an amazing agenda-free event [despite the deliberate and unfortunate reference to a particular style of dance for which melbourne has apparently become known internationally], this year attended by about 10 times as many people as last year, who had clearly gone to at least 10 times as much effort.
off the top of my head i saw zombie chefs, zombies in wheelchairs, zombie kids and pregnant zombies [hopefully nobody reported them to DHS], a zombie librarian, zombie goths [get your head around that one], and even, for god's sake if nobody else's, a zombie lesbian construction worker.
it was glorious, and so fucking funny that the tears almost ran down my trouserlegs. serious "kudos" to everyone involved, and especially to these three zombie nuns who agreed to let me photograph them on the way into The Lounge for a well-deserved post-shuffle drink. and some brains. hope you girls got some *wink*
i fucking hates commercial channels, but this is the earliest-posted link i could find... it's not hyperlinked because (a) i wanted people to know that it was a link to ninemsn before they followed it, and (b) i couldn't be arsed with the html.
