Friday Fluff #6
Back at it again in week 6! Seems like we're getting a lot of good news at the minute - except for the fact that only Western Australia and the ACT get a long bloody weekend for ANZAC Day. I mean, they all kinda feel like long weekends at the minute, and we just had one for Easter - but it's the bloody principal! But other than that, we're effectively flattening the curve in Australia - good on you, reader - Dr. Dre FINALLY uploaded his legendary album The Chronic to streaming services very quietly on 4/20 (how apt), and we've just rung in the end of Vintage 2020 and heck the wines are looking like they'll be a lot of fun - they might be in your fridge sooner than you think...
Anyways on to the Fluff. It's actually getting pretty tough to put these together at the moment - i'm running out of content! If you guys have got any good ones you wanna share, shoot em through to noah@ochrenation.com.au and we'll give you a swell shout out! Booze this week? Gonna keep it real local and to one of our great mates: BK Wines. If ya'll have been tuning into the livestreams, we had the legendary Brendon Keys on last week which was such a treat - he swapped stories, shared plenty of great wine and we just had a blast! A few days later, his amazing other half Kirstyn dropped off a few of his finest, and one of our favourites is his 'Skin & Bones' Pinot Noir. Not many people make Pinot this good out of the Adelaide Hills, and that's saying something. Love you and love your work BK - FLUFF! P.S: Enjoy the Iso-Beard.

Today I completed my final 10 laps, and although the mission is complete - I am going to keep on going.
