Drinking on the Streets
I have been driven to the bottle, and not only drinking but drinking and smoking on the streets of Melbourne like a true Aussie. Friday I had three leaving parties and one welcome party with a double booking at one point.
Dishwasher Fixed
My dishwasher finally got fixed today 19 days after I first discovered it was broke and it has been hard. I have had broken air con, dryers, ovens, washing machines but this was without any doubt the one appliance I can not live without.
The Town
My dishwasher is still broke so I decided to go the gold class cinema and have my dinner whilst watching The Town with Ben Affleck. I was quite disappointed with The Town after all the hype it had received but I should have known better when I saw Ben Affleck was in it but the food was outstanding, the mini burgers and shoestring fries were amazing but once again I exceeded the amount of popcorn a human should digest in two hours.
Broken Dishwasher
I discovered on Sunday when I woke up that my dishwasher had broke and had stopped draining the water. I downloaded the manual from the website, I do not know why estate agents feel the need to keep the manuals so tenants have no idea how to work the appliances. I still can not get my air conditioning timer working after 3 years.
GodsKitchen
Last night Ben Spier was in Melbourne with his team playing Godskitchen. We started the night off by going to DJ Helena's penthouse for a drink of what resembled toxic waste and then heard her play at Q-Bar before we went to Godskitchen around 12.30am. It turned out the club Q-Bar is opposite my flat tucked away down an alley which is handy to know.
Daylight Saving
South Australia has gone into summertime, it is now official. We moved the clocks forward one hour this morning which means daylight saving has now come into effect. England is still on daylight saving until Sunday 31 October which means the difference now is +10 hours and on the 31st October will go to +11 hours.
El Apache
It was like watching a heavy weight boxing match and Manchester City emerged with the 3 points in the bag to kick off my Saturday night. It got even better when both Arsenal and Liverpool dropped points which made the win even sweeter.
Coffee Machine
I had to go into work this morning, yes it was a Saturday. I was supposed to be kicking things off from home and then making my way into the office whilst I waited for other people to do their tasks but I had a blond moment when I woke up and forgot my password and subsequently locked my account dooh.
BoB
I have upgraded my broadband hardware after using it for nearly six years. I have said goodbye to my D-Link and said hello to BoB. BoB stands for Broadband in a box or should that be BiaB?
