    I wish I could get my preferred beers in a carton of 30 But my local bottleshop is now doing 12 packs of a nice beer I like from NZ for $20 good value in my books. Drinking a bottle now as I write.

    I dont know much about poetry but I do like that one by robert frost... 2 roads diverged in a wood blah blah and I chose the one less travelled by as it needed wear, or something like that. And I like edgar allen poe (excuse the spelling if thats not it)
    Dont take me so seriously, i make up lame poems all the time, i posted one about being a bee some time ago, i will try and find a link.
    I am currently not drinking beer as i write
    And its about time for me to say goodnight

    This is the one I think you mean mate.


    The Road Not Taken



    Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
    And sorry I could not travel both
    And be one traveller, long I stood
    And looked down one as far as I could
    To where it bent in the undergrowth;

    Then took the other, as just as fair,
    And having perhaps the better claim
    Because it was grassy and wanted wear,
    Though as for that the passing there
    Had worn them really about the same,

    And both that morning equally lay
    In leaves no step had trodden black.
    Oh, I kept the first for another day!
    Yet knowing how way leads on to way
    I doubted if I should ever come back.

    I shall be telling this with a sigh
    Somewhere ages and ages hence:
    Two roads diverged in a wood, and I,
    I took the one less travelled by,
    And that has made all the difference.


    Robert Frost

    All set to go? See you tomorrow then!

    Any problems finding the address (135 Sydney Street, New Farm) call me on "oh four seven eight five five four two two seven". I'm hoping the car park will be relatively clear but New Farm Park is a popular destination on weekends.
