THE HOSE DOWN
FEBRUARY 2025

The Christmas Party Tour! 

It was tough, but we managed to party hard x 4 over the festive season. Perth kicked us off with some virtual golfing. Kinda like regular golf, except you can’t blame landing in the rough on a freak wind gust, and nobody looks twice if you take a swing with a beer in your hand. 

Next up, Adelaide enjoyed a golf event for the real pros… okay, it was mini golf, but it was still loads of fun! Alex, our National Sales Manager, even got a hole in one! A very impressive feat, if it hadn’t been done by Eleni, his wife, about 9 holes earlier. There’s always next time, Alex! 

Melbourne ended our golfing streak by heading out on the town for a Wild West themed night, complete with a mechanical bull. Few were brave enough to face the beast, but Luke, Melb’s Warehouse Supervisor, took one for the team and volunteered. We’ll leave the result to your imagination. 

Then it was Rocklea and Caboolture’s time to shine. We kept it classy with a cruisy bar crawl along the Brisbane River. To the best of our knowledge, nobody was booted from a venue, so we were clearly on our best behaviour! 

Christmas Eve at Taipan   

Great company, plenty of laughs, and an early knock-off set the tone for a fantastic Christmas Eve, and that was just the beginning. Our Secret Santa gift exchange brought plenty of surprises and laughs, with Neil scoring a pair of undies with his face on them, and he’s probably still wearing them. We topped the day off with a decadent lunch, indulged a little too much, and were spoiled with an incredibly thoughtful hamper prepared by Loo, Al’s wife. All in all, it was the perfect day!
