Went out for a Vietnamese meal last night. It was very good. Best meal I've had in ages. The picture of the flat roof building with the parasols outside is the restaurant. I know. Terrible picture. Sorry!

Highlights of the meal included the cold rolls (starter... or entree as they say here). Which were veg and pork in a thin wrap. Salt and pepper thin shell crab (crab with a thin shell..funnily enough!... so you eat it all, shell included!) and vietnamese coffee (which is strong coffee with... condensed milk! help! I need to get back the gym!).

We sat and watched this fire blaze away in someone's backgarden for a while. We thought they were just burning stuff, until the fire brigade arrived! Oops! We had just sat there and not done anything! The two guys pictured are Patrick and Graham, two of the people I was out with. Remember these faces. Not very good in an emergency.

The other picture is of Ramsay Street. Where is Harold..?

Interesting fact (well, sort of...)... Australia has banned Guy Fawkes Night.

And even less interesting than that... but I thought worthy of mention, Patrick and Graham have never seen snow.
