A fella from Darwin, real bushie type, Crocodile Dundee incarnate, gets a letter from a posh law firm in Sydney informing him that he is the long lost nephew of some rich bloke who has popped his clogs and as the only surviving relative he stands to inherit the whole pile. But he has to go to the big smoke down south, prove identity and such. He is sent plane tickets and details of the Wentworth on George and all the rest of it.
He flies to Sydney and books into the digs. Not quite the penthouse suite but palatial nonetheless and he makes himself at home. Gets room service, has a couple of brews and then turns in. He gets woken about 11pm by the sounds of hooting and hollering, bovine bellowing, stamping and general yayhooing. Being a top ender he is not too bothered, but it goes on for hours. Eventually at about 3:00am he’s we’ll ticked off so he jumps in the lift and goes up a floor. He quickly identifies the room and he hammers on the door. It gets opened by a gent who appears to be drunk beyond repair, suit all adrift, wine and food stains on the shirt, tie at half mast, along with his trouser flies and a Sitting Bull type party hat on with big cow horns coming out the sides.
“What are you playing at?” asks your man “Its past 3:00am and I’m trying to get some snooze. Fair go”
“Shorry mate” woozes the wreck at the door. “Big night you shee.....hic, (pfzzzzt) 'Scuse me”
“Yeah, I get that, what is the occasion?” asks your man from Darwin.
“Bit of do” and he points to his party hat. “We're holding a Buffalo’s Ball”
“Well, for Christ’s sake, leave the poor b*stard animal alone!”.

Re: A bushie in the city
True story, actually: The very same thing happened to Ozbow's very own Tony Jensen!
It's the great, big, broad land 'way up yonder,
It's the forests where silence has lease;
It's the beauty that thrills me with wonder,
It's the stillness that fills me with peace.
