To the big smoke... again

Last Thursday, Jodie and I went to Hobart for a planned trip. The timing was so that I could get my stitches out by a very good GP we'd found. I also got a tetanus booster [so did Jodie] while I was there.

The other main reason for the trip was shopping. We had started to compile a big list of things that we needed, and it was time to make the most of the trip. After getting the stitches, we'd stocked up on toiletries, and two huge glass jars... but there's more.

First stop: Office supplies. The highlight was definitely the laminator... then a quick stop to get some dry food for the boys.

Hardware store...

• my wood chopping protective equipment
• knee pads for cleannig [must blog photo]
• 10kg bucket of Omomatic [can't wait to place bulk wholesale orders]
  
• 12v Wet & Dry dust busters - one for the guests too
• Mini Bankers Lamp

We got a coffee grinder at the whitegoods place, and lots of stuff from two different housewares places - including more huge glass jars, and a magnetic knife rack. We investigated sheets and towels. We even stopped into Target to get a matching bedside lamp.

We stopped by the homebrew supply store too... where we bought lots of Coopers products, so along with my home brew kit that Andrew gave me, I can start brewing my own beer.

It was a very well planned, executed, and exhausting day. The highlight was a lunch at the Lark Distillery. We had a peat smoked, and whiskey cured salmon and cheese platter, and some Moobrew! Fantastic!
