On a lighter note, I took my car in for a service, and an hour later found my “mechanic” trying to buy a bottle of Jim Bean on an IOU
I’ve made a terrible mistake
But everyone is so nice, I stopped for petrol in a place called Middleton and two people I will genuinely never see again waved at me

It was really bad, Tahune is basically the remnants from uni students creating a campfire in a backyard in Fitzroy
Given how bad it was it’s genuinely a miracle that only three houses were lost

Everyone in Tassie is a mechanic of sorts.

Place is gorgeous by the way, where we live has to be around 60 km from Hobart. Wife works there and I work for home, so I drive her there, and honestly I’ve got the best commute on earth traversing the south east coast
Takes 50 minutes, going from greensborough to Melbourne proper took me 2 hours once upon a time
Funniest thing though, people here complain on the traffic

My ******* father, who moved down here about 4 years ago, is now going to Bunnings in Kingston every second day to buy all manners of s**t
Where’s the pause button?

My old man goes missing in Bunnings for at least 4 hours per weekend.

Honestly he’ll say he’s going up the shop and he will come back with some new fangled electric who-the-heck-knows

I lol'd. Test your brakes on the way out.
Northern Tassie is the best. Love it. Still not had my "Tassie Birthday", wish I'd moved years ago.
Boag's is better than Cascade. Primos on a warm evening!

Boags premium is still ok but whichever conglomerate bought out Boags has completely molested the draught.
As a Northerner I'd even admit the Cascade draught is miles better than the Boags draught these days.

Is there a legit Cascade vs Boags rivalry?
North V South. Boags in Lonny, Cascade in the South.

Dont say the C word in my presence please, you may get shanked.

Is the rivalry over which beer sucks less?
Last Rites is one of the best breweries in Australia.
Seven Sheds is pretty handy too.

Haven't heard of them - from their website I get the impression they tend to sell only locally?
True. Worth a try if you wish for decent beer. Harvest market in Launceston is where you find them on Saturdays.

It’s windy, my clothes basket blew into the river
There were crabs on the bank
But you can pick up Asahi for 12 at the local, so heck it

Love Tassie - get there at least once a year (sister in Lonnie). Good vibe.
Admittedly, some of the smaller places are a bit ......... weird (always check it's not an old Hydro town before entering).

First good frost of the year.

Do you see me sitting at my attic window of a night looking down over the moonlit garden?

Hall of Famer
The place is full of weirdos, but I really miss some of the wild places and cosy pubs there.
