SwillinGrog Visits The Mt Tamborine Brewery
Recently I paid a visit to the Mt Tamborine Brewery and sampled some of the beers they have on offer. I bought a few bottles home with me and shall review some of them in the not too distant future.
Climbing: Hotel California (22) ⭐⭐⭐ @ Blue Mountains
Come for a ride as Syl & Finchy climb the classic Blueys multipitch: Hotel Cali. Normally a 325m ten pitch sport climb. We topped out on pitch 8 just two minutes before last light (although the lighting on the GoPro footage shows much more light), so we skipped the last two pitches (a 20m walk through the bushes, and a 20m grade 16 climb) and just walked around the side to the next gully and hiked out. Pitch 1 (22) was awesome technical climbing on mostly thin holds, pitch 2 (20) still thin and a little precarious but eases off a bit, pitch 5 (17) was simply stunning starting on the arete then up the main face on some delicious moves, pitch 6 (19) (the money pitch) an epic and run out traverse into big exposure towards the end, pitch 7 (20) was pretty thin and a committing little rooflet to negotiate, pitch 8 (18) big holds and fun climbing on the home stretch with stunning views and massive height above the valley below! During the last two pitches the wind picked right up and we had light rain come and go (off camera the trailing rope was blowing 90° horizontally around the arete), the ominous black clouds brewing behind us kept our pace up though fortunately we didn't get hit by storm. So much fun and incredible day out! :)

Cape to Cape MTB 2018 course reveal video
Starting at Cape Leeuwin lighthouse and finishing four days later at the famous Colonial Brewery, the course makes its way through a network of trails along the coast, through National Parks, forest, farm lands, mountain bike parks, and bush before finishing four days later back at Margaret River. Roughly 210km and 2,500 of climbing in total, each day’s riding is between 45 and 65km and has its own special terrain and environment to keep things interesting with a mix of fast flowing single trail, farm tracks, groomed downhill trails and fire trails – many through private land that can only be ridden while racing the Cape to Cape.
There’s nothing too technical and it's easily ridable for anyone with a reasonable level of fitness and MTB skills.

Mt Roland Walk
I went up to northwest Tasmania after I'd finished with exams along with a day off work. My first walk on the trip was Mt Roland, an iconic mountain in the area, and one which is viewed as Sheffield's Mt Wellington. I started the walk from just outside Gowrie Park, which is the longer route up, with the shorter route being straight up through the north-facing cliffs and outcrops. It was an enjoyable walk, with a variety of vegetation, great views and a surprisingly nice waterfall. Oh, and this is my 100th video posted to Youtube!

There is in fact a genuine cellar à la Provence and enough space and separation of spaces to accommodate multiple activities concurrently
Over 9 acres of land: an avocado farm where some of the trees have been cleared to provide space for grape vines and other fruit trees. In addition to the 450 mature avocado trees there are 50 citrus, olives and other fruit trees as well as lavender & roses. The owners have taken care not to use pesticides or chemical sprays for the 15 years that they have farmed the land
There are several options for a house site but the obvious spot is ready to go with power and utilities, close to the in-ground Versace swimming pool, already in situ

Teen dies after fight outside middle school
A 13-year old girl from Attucks Middle School ended up on life support at Texas Children's Hospital two days after a fight off campus.
Kashala Francis' mother, Mamie Jackson, says her daughter told her she was attacked by two girls after school on Thursday, and that another girl later jumped in and kicked her in the head.
Jackson says when her daughter returned home Thursday afternoon, she had a bruise on her face, but insisted she was okay.
