A Quick News Update

Our daughter Kate and new Grandson James (Jay or Jamie?) are due home most likely on Wednesday from South Eastern Private Hospital.

Caravanning friends Russell and Irene expect to arrive in Rockhampton tonight as they head back to Drouin in Victoria. They later plan to spend a couple of nights in St George which was one of our favorite stopover spots. It is also the home of the Riversands Winery which is a great spot.

I bottle washed yesterday and then bottled the latest brew this morning. Supplies now seem to be up to date.

Each of these white polystyrene boxes contains 21 bottles of home brewed beer and there is another cache in the 'office' a bit closer to the fridge! Today I bottled a 'Black Ale' which makes a tasty change from the regular lager brew. The polystyrene boxes helps to maintain a reasonably constant temperature as the beer completes its brewing process (at least another 2 weeks before it is ready to drink).

Cool days with blustery south westerly winds at the moment. Today's max is expected to be about 19. We are looking at a 17 max tomorrow!
