Sue the little Aussie 4' x 4'

This little character was getting 3 sheets to the wind at the bar one night. I happened to be sitting with friends at a table and heard this woman's accent, she was a fellow Aussie.(Very broad accent, and even I had a time making her words out) She was as wide as she was tall, hence the 4' x 4' title. Sue (her name) was a barrel of laughs, we found her captivating with her humor. My American pals could not get over the tales she told. Sue never did know I sketched her though. As she got up to leave, the ship was swaying a little, Sue toddled from side to side trying to get into the rhythm of our vessel (have you got a mental picture on this?) as she made her way to her dining room, hope she got there.
