Dwarf
bites Mike in Camberwell begging scam
26.11.14 - The atmosphere is
already getting fairly hideous in Camberwell, particularly
in the carparks, and we're not even in December
yet. Maria had lucked on a park and we were just
heading for Choclatte when she tugged at my sleeve
and I was confronted by this vociferous dwarf, who
claimed he'd lost his wallet and needed train fares
for himself and his wife.
I'd just been spending at Music Junction and had
but one twenty dollar note left, but I gave it to
him anyway, at which he decently enough gave Maria
back her offering. When we got into Choclatte we
discovered he'd put the bite into Lauren as well,
so we concluded it was a scam.
By now this errant dwarf has morphed into
TV star, Warwick Davis, (pic) so if you
happen to see him, give him a backhander from me... |

I'm
about to see the worst movie since Melancholia.. |
Turkish
delight outstays its welcome..
24.11.14 - M and I haven't
been to a movie for a while and it was a toss-up
whether to see the David and Margaret recommended
Turkish palme d'or winner, Winter Sleep,
or the D & M recommended Ms Rosenstein Shoots
a Shitload of Shots on her Box Brownie.* We
decided to go see the Turkish effort, but not before
lunching at the usually reliable Builders Arms.
The cook was having a bad day at the BA (pic)
and the film turned out to an endurance test of
the first water - it seemed like the longest film
ever made. We should've been tipped of by the title
I suppose, not to mention we didn't even get to
the half-way point in the director's previous effort.

November
swings into action after a non-existent October
17.11.14 - It's not
that October wasn't packed full of activities, but
between me and Telstra it didn't get recorded. The
contretemps with Telstra continues and so there's
not a lot to show so far this month either, but
I did manage to smuggle some pics from yesterday's
post-wedding carry-on at the Sullivans' place. Not
everybody made it who had been to the wedding (Danielle
and Mario's wedding that is) as some had left for
home interstate and the couple themselves were pulling
together last-minute details for their impending
honeymoon in Hawaii as we were munching on chicken
and salads (including a Maria special) and sipping
on flutes o' bubbly. |
