Melbourne Cup Sweep

Today is the race that stops the nation.

But don't worry, the public service will continue as usual.

Also as usual, I will be running our office Melbourne Cup Sweep. Entry is $2 per person and first prize is $6, second prize $4 and third prize $2.

I have been advised by the government (and TCC) that I can keep the balance to cover my administration costs.

My Melbourne cup tip was going to be Efficient, in recognition of the great job I do here at the Department. However, as he was scratched this morning, I have changed my tip to Pop Rock in tribute to the great Farnsey.
