Nothing like a trip on the Back of a Ferry to facilitate some work team bonding. The leaden skies couldn’t dampen the mood and thankfully the rain held off. Big crew out the back to witness two induction ceremonies. Mr …
Induction – Kit #133
Inductees #1 and #3 have started to travel to Melbourne on a regular basis. More often than not, that’ll involve a working dinner with our newest inductee. Kit’s a hospitable and generous fellow, so the least we could do is …
Jervis Bay – craft beer central
The craft beer revolution shows no signs of abating. Craft Beer Reviewer has published 25 Brewery Lists and I don’t think the total number has ever gone backwards. 740 breweries at last count and apparently there’s 170 new breweries in …
Induction – Luke #132

Quay Bar – a Covid casualty
A favourite stop-off point before the ferry to Manly was Quay Bar – either indoors or a summer favourite – outdoors. Sydney’s starting to open up again, and I thought they’d at least get the outdoor part of Quay Bar …
Induction – Jo #130
A glorious afternoon for an impromptu induction. Members #1 and #3 are partners in crime again at the same organisation. We are discovering workmates that haven’t experienced the delights of the #worldsbestcommute. Sure Jo has caught the ferry home before …
In love with BEERLOVE
There is simply no better beer than Draught beer. Cans, bottles and cans with widgets are all fine – but when it comes down to it, a cold beer with a beautiful head that is poured straight from a keg …
