Good Times with Old Mates

My beloved possum, Ben is going to Tanzania with Barrick Gold for three years starting next month. His official going away party was on Saturday. Being such a nice boy that he is, he put a tab on at the Balmoral and booked the top floor out for all of his old uni and school mates, plus his work mates from Plutonic.

I picked up Andrew along the way, who also spent a couple of years in Adelaide with Santos who is finally back in town long term, and we headed out. We got Ben a little "something" to keep him informed and entertained in Africa: Can't go anywhere without a Lonely Planet Africa book, and The Gods Must Be Crazy I and II on DVD!

With any luck I'll be able to catch up with Ben one more time before he bogs off to Africa in two weeks with a meal at Uber, something I've been talking about forever and a day...

Anyway, good luck with it all Ben and hope you stay safe and most of all, learn heaps and have a most awesome time!
