2 Beef and Reef for $12

Trish has read a few adverts for one of the local hotels and their 2 for $12 Beef and Reef meal. Thought we would give it go so we arrived at the hotel at about 5:45. The place was packed out, "Reserved" was plastered across most of the tables and all other seats were taken. We were told there might be a vacancy at about 7:30 pm.

We adjourned to the RSL and had a few drinks and listened to a live performer. The Aussie Bush Band Bullamakanka were playing later that evening so the RSL was busy too. We eventually got back to the hotel at 7:30 and there were a few spare tables. We had drinks and ordered 2 Beef and Reef for $12!

No wonder the place was packed out, a great meal and only $6 each. We felt almost 'obligated' to stay for a few drinks eventually getting home at about 9 pm just to catch the end of Federer's demolition of Andy Roddick in a Semi Final of the Australian Tennis Open. We will be adding this establishment to one of the 'must do' activities when we have friends up from interstate. But next time we will book before we head off!

We had insulation installed in the house this morning. The guy arrived at 6:45 am and on his way home by 9:30. Pretty hot and sticky today. When he emerged from the ceiling he was saturated from head to toe with perspiration and on his way home for a shower and a swim!
