folk: some friends and I are aiming to try European cuisines we haven’t had before. What are some good places serving European food types less common in Melbourne? (so not Italian/greek/french)

Typical car-brained local business people. The parklet is no doubt bringing them more trade, but oh no, "TEH PARKING!"

Locals love Balwyn cafe parklet Bin 3. Businesses want the three car spaces back

So I arrived at the house today to find a couple of gas workers removing my gas line.

Which, ok, I do want that. But!! I didn't book it in.

In fact, I called CovAU and to ask about the price, but they couldn't give me a price in advance, and their estimate was 2-4x more than the government rate information, so I explicitly told them not to book. And followed it up with an email saying the same, which they replied to in confirmation.

Has anyone else had this happen?

I enjoyed this one, taking in Fitzroy from the 1970s to today. I spend a lot of time there myself, visiting its library, pool, cafes and bars.

Life in the ’burbs: On the mean streets of 1970s Fitzroy, even the trees looked like they wanted to die

This Azalea is looking the best in years. The leaves are a healthy, rich green colour. Previously they had a paler mottled appearance. It is autumn, yet it has a couple of flowers. I am not a fan of the frilly, pink flowers of some varieties but I like these flowers.

This plant was given to me by my mother. I receive her excess and unwanted plants. She enjoys buying plants and I enjoy receiving her rejects - a good arrangement.

Want to be an AFL media personality? It's easy — just follow the four-step Kane Cornes plan.

  1. Look up which teams that lost on the weekend.

  2. For each of the teams, come up with a reason why either:

a) It's the players' fault. They're too lazy. Don't train hard enough. Don't put in enough effort!
b) It's the players' fault. They're not skilled enough!
c) It's the coach's fault. Bad tactics. Bad strategy. He's allowing those players to be lazy!
d) It's the recruiter's fault. They picked/traded for the wrong players!

  1. Get your producers to find a passage of play, interview, or press conference you can say backs up your claim.

  2. Go on TV or radio and say what you think confidently, as if you're really pissed off about it.

Yeah, the older Richmond players didn't show enough effort. You really don't care — you used to play for Port Adelaide after all.

But you pretend you do on TV and the radio, because it makes great content.

That's really all it takes, folks!

Stuck on a westbound Collins Street tram near Parliament, something seems to have happened up ahead; can hear the odd siren. Eastbound trains are running OK though. Wonder what the issue is?

Eating lunch in the sun outside Docklands Library. This is much nicer weather than we normally get in late May - usually it's icily cold all day by now.

I took a photo yesterday of the IOOF Building as I was passing the corner of Elizabeth and Collins Streets. It opened in 1973 as the MLC building, and I believe it was the tallest building in Melbourne back then. I like the modernist curve.

Someone has stolen the salvia that was thriving in our street garden and covered in flowers for months. It has been carefully dug out.

One of our neighbours has given up on a nice front garden because of people stealing his plants. This is why I stick to nasturtiums and geraniums - free and easy to grow from cuttings or seeds. No-one wants to steal them.

I am at Cafe Bruce in St Kilda this morning. The owner, Bruce, listed all the famous Bruces and found pictures for the wall. Bruce Wayne and Bruce Banner, Bruce Willis and Bruce Springsteen. Robert the Bruce. Bruce Lee. I can see Bruce Spence and Bruce Almighty. So many Bruces.

Coffee is good too.
#cafe #melbourne #bruce

A wall of Bruce including Wayne, Springsteen, and Banner.
Many more Bruces including Robert the Bruce, a rabbit called Bruce and a sign for Brucedale.
Bruce Almighty, Bruce Lee, Bruce Weber, a cartoonist named Bruce, and Bruce Spence.
