the BikeShed at Ceres
Posted in East Brunswick, business, customer service, social issues on January 31st, 2009I’ve been meaning to replace my motorcycle for my relatively short commute to work. I used to walk to a previous job but it’s further to my current one and it would take too long, and cut into my sleeping time! Unfortunately bicycles have been stolen from the carpark of my apartment building and I was hesitant about buying something new and shiny that someone may want to steal. I wanted something scruffy and second hand that looks unassuming and not worth stealing.

Virus at the Laundry on Johnston St
Posted in Fitzroy, Johnston St, music on January 30th, 2009A trad jazz band called Virus has been playing every Saturday afternoon 4.00pm-7.00pm at the Laundry bar on Johnston St since 2001. I used to go a lot about five years ago and then stopped. I recently went back and it was as good as ever. Entry is free with donations to the band encouraged via a big kettle they carry around during breaks. There’s comfy couches to sit on and space to dance at the front and it’s much better now thanks to the indoor smoking ban.
