I am indeed MEL based, but in true FT style, am not actually in MEL that much. Surprisingly I will be in Melbourne at the end of this week, but very busy at work until Friday night.
I am skiing on Saturday in the Victorian Alps. You're welcome to join if you enjoy very early morning wake up calls and dry Australian humour.
Currently free Sunday at this stage if you wanted to do lunch or dinner in the city.
