Last official duty with my old employer.
I'm still an employee until 13 June, but I'm on annual leave for two weeks. At the
Arthouse Hotel tonight for the
EWON 10th birthday party. Plenty of booze and good food doing the rounds so it's not a difficult assignment.

Decent size crowd they've pulled - about 200 peeps by my estimation

Beautiful old building.

The grab bag as you walked out the door. Let's take a look inside.

Last official duty with my old employer.
Oh dear. This is kind of lame. The "resolution kit" contains:
Pen (communication)
Jar of jellybeans (energy)
Shower egg-timer (time)
Stress ball (patience)
They would have been better off giving nothing away, IMHO

KASH.
Linda's been talking about this place for the last couple of weeks and talking up the service and coffee. Located on Elizabeth Street in Surry Hills, KASH is owned and operated by two young women named KAren and SHaron (get it?)
They certainly make an effort to know their customers. As we walked in they not only greeted Linda by name but asked me if I had a nice birthday on Monday (Linda must have mentioned it to them last week). Friendly, fast and a nice atmosphere. I could get used to this place.

KASH.
They use Tobys Estate coffee! w00t! Not a bad flat what at all. Will be coming back here for sure.

That's the War Memorial ahead.

What the.....?
JB HiFi has invaded the Strand Arcade! When did this happen?

A brief pause in the rain.
I should be walking now and making the most of it, but I've stopped at a *tiny* coffee shop, Speedbar Espresso, on Park Street.
Wed 4 Jun, 2008 - 10:28:40 AM
Yum.
Speedbar Espresso makes awesome coffee, no matter how you like it. This mocha is no exception - the coffee flavour is just soooo intense.

Ooops....
....fingers got snagged on a sharp piece of my umbrella. Multiple cuts.

Delivery from the UK.
A set of ELSAWIN (Volkswagen technical manuals) on four DVDs. Purchased from a seller on eBay and I have a sneaking suspicion that these are not quite legit.
