Mudgee & Byron Bay - March/April 2004

Georgia Lush, one of our long standing (and perhaps long suffering) employees got married in March to Frasier Slack-Smith. It was a lovely afternoon, with the wedding held in a vineyard west of the Blue Mountains, completely appropriate for a Lush event. I think Trinity found a kind of peace sitting on a barrel of wine.... a sign of things to come?

The next month we went to Byron Bay to meet up with an American friend of David's, Alexander Calliet, who was running a workshop in Brisbane with a business associate of his Ken. Both had brought along partners and children. We rented a beach front house on Tallows beach, ate feasts and swam each day. So great to meet people with common interests and great business ideas.

Showing people around this part of Australia is great fun. We visited the light house at the eastern most point of Australia, the Byron markets and generally reveled in the sunshine after a stressful phase in our business.
