Tom's shattered and Natasha thinks he should think about asking George back to help on the farm. She's spoken to Emma who thinks George is genuinely sorry about the video. And Emma and Will have both had words with him. Tom thinks it's up to Helen. They talk about Helen's solicitor who's clarified that Rob didn't break his non-molestation order at the Leisure Centre, because he was in a public space when Helen saw him. Talk turns to the Tearoom and Natasha says it's been an eye-opener helping there. She doesn't think Fallon's making the most of its potential. Natasha outlines things she would do to improve it, including using more of Bridge Farm's products. Natasha doesn't want to barge in and start telling Fallon how to run her business, but the Tearoom is an integral part of the wider Bridge Farm offer. It's food for thought. Toby tells Pip he's enjoyed the last few days in Ambridge. They bump into Stella and without checking with Pip, Toby invites Stella to a barbecue with them and Rex. Toby reminisces about his early days in Ambridge working with Rex and how he and Pip first got together. The wine is flowing and Toby and Pip banter about their relationship. Before heading off, Stella hugs Pip and says she guesses they've put the last couple of weeks behind them. Toby stays behind to put Rosie to bed.

Hawke's Brewing was founded by advertising creatives Nathan Lennon and David Gibson, together with former Australian Prime Minister Bob Hawke, in 2017.Bob Hawke passed away in 2019 but his legacy lives on at Hawke's Brewing through a unique arrangement that diverts his royalty share in the business to Landcare Australia, the environmental charity he founded in 1989.We'll talk about that later on in this interview with Nathan and head brewer Brodie French, as well as reflecting on some key milestones for the business.Hawke's brought production of its beers entirely in-house since commissioning its Marrickville brewery in late 2021.And soon after, the company entered the hospitality arena in spectacular fashion with the establishment of the Bob Hawke Beer and Leisure Centre, incorporating the Lucky Prawn Chinese Restaurant.We'll find out a bit about Brodie's brewing passions; Hawke's evolution from a single SKU brand to a more diverse product offering; and its national expansion plans, including recent efforts to establish a beachhead in Melbourne.First up though, I asked Nathan about the significance to Hawke's of the Marrickville venue, which just notched up 12 months of trading.
