BoofList

Friends will know that for the past 6 months or so, I have had a personal mission to 'Tick off' every bar in Melbourne's CBD. Collecting a 'Tick' involves going to a pub/bar/club and consuming an alcoholic beverage.
I will also rate each bar on 4 important criteria for choosing a place for a brew, Ambiance, Pretentiousness, Beer Range, Prices. This will come together to form an overall rating.
Ill post the full list at some stage soon, but upon extensive research, it has been discovered, that currently, there are 240 bars in Melbourne's CBD. Now, there are rules that govern what goes on the list and not, here are a few...

• Bar must be in the CBD 'Grid' - Melbournians will know what this is about, but for those unititiated, the 'Grid' is bounded by Flinders St, La Trobe St, Spencer St and Spring St.
• Alcoholic beverage must be consumed - You cant drop in and have a coke, or just poke your head in and say you've been there.
• Bar must be in its bar setup - controversial one, but work lunches when the bar is actually a restaurant or sub-par eatery, does not count - make some effort.

My current tally is kickin' around at 90 out of the 240.
The 90th tick was last Wednesday night - Murmur Bar - nice, quaint - rating 6/10
Since starting this challenge, I have realised how hard this might be to complete...
I guess its along the line of Heath's Project 183 - btw, there is a link on there to Boofspace!

Snow Shenanigans!

A weekend at Falls Creek in Victoria's north east alpine region promised a lot... the best slopes in the state, staying in one of the best apartments, best location.... and alcohol.
In the end, who would have thought you could have such a wicked weekend without there being any sign on white stuff other than pieces of Vegas's regurgitated pizza after a big Friday night.
Zero Snow = Kids making their own fun. The craziness continued for the rest of the weekend, Guitar Hero kicking around through copius amounts of Vodka and Red Bull.
The biggest Washed Up moment of the weekend had to be our esteemed host stumbling out of his room at 11am (for a 10am checkout), wearing nothing but a corporate sports day t-shirt. Dis-aaaster...
