      He really should have announced it in his North Face jacket and starting with “at 11.59 pm today…” just for old times sake

        I am now rueing the fact that I’ll be interstate for the next week and missing out on all the excitement myself.

      haaa I was in a meeting with a bunch of people at 50 Lonsdale when news trickled in. That was fun! Meeting effectively abandoned, watched the announcement instead.

          nah, just a frequent visitor :)

          (giving advice or asking for money, mostly! If I can swing a lunchtime meeting a bowl of poké never goes astray…)

            The Banh Mi joint at the Telstra building next door, is a solid lunch option too.

            Those poke bowls have gotten much smaller since that pandemic. Was my go to lunch back then, but not anymore.

              Oh I always get the bún at that place! delicious. Had meant to get that today, but there was a huge queue by the time I got there. Had my sad leftovers instead.
