Takin a Roadie

Yesterday’s adventures in house hunting took us to the northern suburbs. You can get a bit more for your money up there.

For whatever reason, Google Maps always highlights a relatively small number of landmarks even when you’re zoomed pretty far out. And somehow in Glenfield, the landmark of choice is a roadhouse bar called The Postman’s Leg.

Agonizing over housing is thirsty work so we stopped in for a pint and to see if we could figure out why Google loves this place so much.

Well, it was a fun bar, had a nice cheeseburger and listened to the Recliner Rockers, who were the perfect band for the setting. Even at their somewhat advancing ages, they put on an energetic show. Here, the guitarist is standing on the bass and playing the guitar over his head. Because why not??
