A local man’s Sunday night couch scroll has become mildly more interesting tonight, after discovering a person he went to school with might now be out of jail.
Resting a bag of “Extreme Cheese” flavoured corn chips on his stomach while watching the footy and scrolling his phone, local bloke Luke Martindale stopped his thumb over a particular post that nearly made him choke on a chip.
Staring at a photo posted by the Gully Hotel in Rockhampton of a man attempting to eat a 1kg beef burger, Luke noticed the image had tagged one “Harley Duntley”, a former classmate he used to play school footy with.
“Oh shit, looks like Harley is out of the big house!” Luke mused to himself, zooming in to get a better look at his old classmate, someone he hadn’t seen since the Year 10 formal.
“Looks like he’s doing better…”
A little rattled to see a grown-up photo of a bloke he used to do swimming lessons with, Luke did the only obvious thing any millennial would do and blasted the news into the last remaining group chat he has with his schoolmates.
“Boys Harley alert!” Luke typed, adding a few siren emojis for effect.
“Woah, I thought he got 8 years for that armed robbery,” replied one mate, Lewis.
“Yeah, remember Haylee from the year below us? I heard he knocked her up before he got put away,” added another mate, Tim, vaguely recalling a rumour he’d heard at the pub on Christmas Eve back in 2020.
“Either way, he’s out now apparently,” Luke replied.
“He’s looking pretty hench, must’ve been hitting the gym pretty hard in there. Looks like he demolished that schnitty fast enough to get on the Champions Wall at the Gully!”
More to come.
