Its been a pretty flat out month or so since the last update. So will attempt to give a brief of whats been happening -
Hockey continues and I have now established my self in the ANU3.1 team and we are travelling pretty well so hopefully their will be some finals hockey played. Attended the Hawaiian night for ANU hockey and went all out applying fake tan and turning up in a grass skirt and bikini top. All a little over the top but if you're going to dress up why not do it properly! Hockey the next day was the derby against 3.2s with a couple of us struggling and resulted in a 1-1 draw, probably a fair result. Since then we have continued on our winning way to make the top 4, the table is really close from 3rd down to 7th so have to really be on our game week in, week out and overcome the top guys to bring them back into the fold.
The major update is that after 2 years in Canberra with GRDC I am moving back to Sydney to take on a new role with Bayer CropScience as a development specialist, a good opportunity and it will present plenty of challenges especially as will be based form a home office. A big plus is that I will be getting my hands dirty again designing and conducting field trials primarily in horticulture and viticulture. The first challenge is to rememeber what I learnt in Uni and through work!
On the brewing front I have been very slack and pretty sure running out of excuses for Pinko and after stumbling upon some left over ginger beer on the weekend which tasted exceptional really going to have to pull my finger out and put on a new brew, which I hope may be ready before I depart Canberra in late July.
