Lunch with friends

Eion and I have just spent a wonderful afternoon with some of my friends from high school. Barb and Drew know the most amazing ethnic bakeries, butcheries, deli's and grocers (all in the suburbs of Adelaide) and can put together a truly delicious meal. Plus Drew's knowledge of wine is mind blowing, so a lunch at their place is a real treat. Other guests included a buddy now living in Canberra (he and his partner came over for the Mahler concert) and a mate who is inspired to cause some embarassment to the current SA government over a particular issue. What an amazing conversation we had - ancient history, wine, buffalo wings, management theory, local politics, international travel and victoriana were just part of it.
