Food crime
When I lived in Sydney, I was in the habit of reading The Good Food Guide from cover to cover every Tuesday. Yeah. I was one of those wankers. (Even worse, I wrote for them later).
Being in Brisneyland, I rarely pick it up now, but this piece popped into my newsfeed yesterday.
"Blue skies smiling at me..."
“Nothing but blue skies do I see.”
Testify, Willie.
Wondering if I should read some Martin Amis?
I confess I’ve never read his novels because they’re not very splodey and I figured he didn’t need the money. But everyone’s been saying how good he was, and now he’s dead. I feel like I maybe have missed out.
I didn't read any John Le Carre until after he had submitted his final manuscript, and then I pretty much binged his entire back catalogue. Anybody read any of the Amis novels? Apparently, Money is his best.
Will JB get an Apple headset?
Is that even a fucking question? Of course, I will.
But, hear me out now. It would be totally justified.
Repeat.
Use the Force... against Nazis!
This comparison vid has apparently been around for ages, but I’ve only just seen it, probably because of the anniversary of the Dambuster’s raid this week. Had no idea Spielberg had crafted a homage to the original film.
Refusing to take yes for an answer.
I’m sitting in Canberra Airport, day-drinking because my flight is delayed. Of course. I’m fine with it, though. I figure you just factor this stuff in nowadays.
Breakfast in Canberra
After a surprisingly tough time finding anywhere open last night (my apologies to Public) I lit out early for breakfast this morning and managed to grab a lonely guy table at Maple and Clove. Had my usual there. The spelt sweet corn waffles with poached googs, avo and salmon.
This will probably be my only feed until I get home later this arvo, so I’m leaning into it with a couple of big milky cappuccinos.
