Dancing Bar Stool-Style, Retreat Sunday

Another great Sunday arvo at the Retreat. Ebony killing it here. There may have been some high kicking, displaying impeccable balance. (no one was hurt). Reece was up for 3 tunes, Wayno and Prue for her last appearance before a massive fund-raising walk starting in the NT this week. Good luck Pru! See you when you get home.

See you this Sunday!


Packed Retreat after Reclink Cup

Many thanks to Stalk for the shot below. It was massive yesterday arvo and into the night – the Retreat packed out with Reclink Community Cup patrons piling in after the game. The Megahertz getting over the line in a tight finish (I’m told). The Doggies getting up in the AFL – and me trying not to be distracted by that game on the TV in the front bar while playing. A big crowd in a great pub, rowdy, singing along, dancing. Melbourne winters are all about it. Seeya Sunday.


40 goes bang!

A fantastic afternoon / evening yesterday at the Retreat for show number 40. Yep – that’s 40 weeks in the chair! Great crowd, cosy in the front bar, and plenty of people all around the pub. Nice to have today off (King’s birthday public holiday). There’ll no doubt be a few sore heads. And I found my phone after having a crew of nice folks looking everywhere for it. Yep, feelin’ like a goose. I’d packed it up with all the gear, neatly into a case. Then set about panicking ‘where’s my phone???’. Anyhoo, all’s well that ends well. Thanks to everybody for a great day & see you again this Sunday. (It’s rumoured Max will be joining us)
