With a single lone float, the 9th 'Elliot Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras' took place today, in a dusty outback town 750km from Darwin, which has only 500 inhabitants.

The only thing to affect the day was that the makeup melted in the heat, according to one participant.
The local kids all looked on bemused.

I'm off to bed early tonight as it's back to work tomorrow and also a very drunken Rusty woke me up at an ungodly hour last night, crashing and banging up above. It sounded like he was smashing plates on the floor. Maybe he is Greek and was having a bit of an after pub party.
G'night all!
