The break of up a decade long relationship and subsequent bouts of loneliness have led me - Sydney’s former Sausage Queen, Chrissy Flanagan - to solve others’ desire to make adult friends, as well as my own.

It’s often said Sydney is a particularly tricky place to make friends as an adult. If you miss out on doing any of the big four locally or at all - high school, uni, work, kids - it’s hard to bridge the gap, leaving many of us lonelier than we would like.

And yet, as adults we’re embarrassed or too self conscious to use modern tools such as friend networking apps to solve this problem.

Chaotic Social is seeking to bridge that gap, in the form of classes and events where you’re encouraged to roll solo and go home with a few new mates in your phone.

Formerly co-owner of restaurant The Sausage Factory and brewery Queens of Chaos, my notoriously rowdy and long running sausage classes continue.

My adopted son Bobbin (pictired) and I co-host every session.
