Chandon
A Saturday drive into Melbourne Yarra Valley with the sun out, blue skies and the roof off the car.
Food Festival
There was a food festival in Melbourne which meant the walk home from work involved being tempted by numerous popup food options around the city.
Reservoir
I have moved out of my apartment in South Yarra and I am temporally located in Reservoir before departing for England. I have only been here one day so it is a bit early to make any judgements but wow am I far away from everything LOL. The blue spot on the image is where I used to live so as you can see I have moved inland .... a lot.
First Election Vote
I have just voted in my first ever Australian election and as I had never voted before in England I have nothing to compare it against but after reading what happened in England last election I am happy to say it look me less than 15 minutes.
Dettol Hand Wash
A new shopping centre has opened up around the corner from me so I do not have to walk 20 minutes to the nearest shop. I only discovered it on Saturday and I have already been twice. I treated myself to the Dettol No-Touch Hand Wash System which is really good and should hopefully stop me from having to replace them every other week. I now need to have one for my shampoo and conditioner.
Melbourne Storms
At 2.40pm on Saturday a dark cloud covered Melbourne and a storm cell unleashed itself and for 20 minutes 19 millimetres of rain bucketed down and 10cm balls of hail with such force that they bounced up from the ground to head height. Walking around yesterday was as if Armageddon had struck Melbourne and now the recovery starts. I feel sorry for all those people in rented cars who are now returning them in exchange for a huge bill for damages, Southern Cross train station had to be evacuated as heavy rain tore a hole in its roof and a deluge splashed down on the train platforms and I am thankful none of my windows were smashed
