Back galley café, camden
Grinders coffee. A pleasant place to sit, fairly healthy food but too pricey, even without the 10% sunday surcharge.
Coffee unreviewed.

Blind toucan café, kangaroo valley
Toby’s estate coffee. Same prices as the city, with generous servings of food. Appears to have a sense of humour about it; a couple of jokes are on display near the coffee machine.
Coffee is quite hot, well enough made. A safe spot for coffee drinking [...]

Movie: Thank You for Smoking
My hopes to see this on its opening night or sooner were dashed when popcorn taxi had to move its screening to a night when I had college, so I’m seeing this much later than I was hoping to.
It’s a movie that is very clever, presents some of the emotional [...]

First you get the running, then you get the coffee
Getting up at 5am to learn how to run with less risk fo injury is at its sweetest when enjoying a coffee afterwards.
Major realisation this morning as to where I’m going wrong (with running at least) - using the inside [...]

Luna park.
Less than 20 minutes’ walk from work is this icon. Not a bad payoff midway through a quick break for exercise while the weather holds out. Update: it didn’t really hold out - the rain started up again on the trip back.

Alfie’s on alfred, milson’s point.
Schibello coffee. Part sandwich bar, part café. Has a backyard / garden courtyard, closed today due to inclement weather.
Coffee machine is a san marimo: I haven’t seen its like - faux wood panelling! Coffee itself is a pleasant surprise: no bad aftertaste, good temperature and [...]

New orleans café, crows nest
Caffe colombari coffee. The only café i’ve seen in sydney with a cigar store minstrel. A range of ages are present, from young adult up, but the general vibe is one of mature family restaurant.
Coffee, slow in its arrival, is well worth the wait. Smooth, [...]

Video: Hamlet
It’s been almost ten years since I saw this last, and much has changed since then. My ability to understand Shakespeare has improved and worsened. Improved, in that I can better follow what’s being said, and the lessons of life that are presented therein, worsened in that I struggle more to follow the iambic [...]

Ben folds and the SSO
Kel and I went to the opera house to see ben folds perform with the sydney symphony orchestra. While the first song was played, and the sound hadn’t quite been equalised properly, I was wondering how good the show would be - after all, I [...]

the opera house
Let’s face it, a cameraphone isn’t going to do much justice to the opera house at the best of times, let alone after dark… It’s a start, though…
