:evil3: Thanks for your updates Guys... [-X And I should reiterate that kick-off
time to DEPART 'Jackson's on George', as Pussasan noted, is promptly at
1100, so if you're after breakfast, :tonqe: or a heart-starter, :drinkers: target your
arrival at 'Jackson's on George' at 1000... :thumbright:

I don't know if the significance of Jackson on George is that well known. The Port of Sydney Shipwrights "roster rooms" used to be in the Ironworker building next to Jackson on George. Don't know if it still there (probably not) but there was a plaque entitled Shipwrights Corner on the right as you went into the bar. Mind you my last time there was way back in the mid 70's....................................

You are probably correct on the time - definitely the action to drink after signing on. The Ship Inn was the early opener at the Quay for those waiting to catch the ferry to the end of Garden Island. A couple of the old fart tradesmen I worked with (as an apprentice) used to have a schooner and a rum before catching the ferry - some had more............

Leave Rhonda and I as a YES for the Basin Trials Rick, but it depends on our plane being on time from Perth. Catching up with an old mate and his wife for dinner, so only have a two to three schooner window of opportunity....... :drinkers: :drinkers: :drinkers: :finga:
