Spent just under 2 hours there, nearly no waiting!

There's nothing cheap AND good around Martin Place, let alone a specific cuisine.

Hoping Monday morning will be a less popular time!

There's like one block (Event/Regent Place and opposite) that's activated and the rest just dies after sunset. King St Wharf and Barangaroo I'm surprised aren't more of a vibe next to the water. There used to be a restaurant/club scene at King St Wharf pre-covid.

There's no connective food/entertainment between the most popular bits (C Quay and Chinatown). It's too officey and the shops close early.

Ooh, I'm going tomorrow with my cousin. I think I've done an Infinity Room at GOMA in Brissie but can't remember which one.

No coffee, only sad hotel tea...

I'm in the MCEC and we can hear it over the talk that's happening (with mics!).

Penance for last night's overspending.

Fortunately the hotel room isn't too bad. I'm going to run the aircon for half an hour and see how I go tonight. Missing my bedside fan.

I fear I smell quite ripe. I went to catch a bus in Heidelberg and it came EARLY (I was across the road, couldn't run for it) so had to wait 15 mins in 34C heat for the next one.
comment in response to post
It's 11.30pm and it's STILL fkn hot, fam. 30C nights my arse. I'm in a crappy hotel - hope the aircon works.

I wouldn't do this at all but one solution without marking the book: an old-school sheet of projector plastic, cut to size, slipped in the pages. Fave lines underlined on plastic in marker (one colour for one side, another for the other?). Can write notes as well? Friend can also remove it.

You should also avoid trying to read in a rough sea with a belly full of Yo-Chi.

I'm saying it's a good film and everyone is good in it and Florence Pugh is defo a competitive British chef-restaurateur and Andrew Garfield is the best dad in the world. I cried a lot.

That being said, Florence Pugh and Andrew Garfield can stare glassy-eyed at each other in front of me at any time. And ALSO, big props to the intimacy co-ordinator, who not only had to work on sex but a harrowing childbirth scene.

Mardi Gras Film Festival director Lisa Rose then dropped that he was in a dance video. He's the only bloke in this.

I didn't stay so I didn't speak to him this time but I have before and he's very personable. Someone asked about the plogging and he says he still does it in England because his place there is rural, but nowhere else because the roads elsewhere are too dangerous.

I wanna ask him how he deals with all the parasocial relationships he must accidentally cultivate.

Also, among all the hilarious things in that story, for some reason it's this line that send me: "The look he gave me was not one I had never seen before."

After the reading he noted that the 'New Yorker' fact-checks everything to the nth degree and he hates it so he threw that in there because it would be impossible to check.

I worked in publishing and sales, on the floor above, had a bell we could hear from our level. It baffled me. I never got to ring a bell when I finished an article ie did my job.

We did have an Incident when youngest niece started building her Money Tree and boy cousin accidentally fell on it when it was nearly complete and there were tears all round. (Completed tree is hers 🥹)
