Another year has been muddled through, the finish line is in sight. We’ll shortly be setting off for the NSW Central Coast for the next little while. I believe the plan is to do as little as possible once there.

We missed out on tickets to last Saturday’s Future Music Festival but nonetheless enjoyed the vibes, and thumping bass-line, thanks to our close proximity to Randwick racecourse.
