    The only two pubs I really go in are the Australian & The Courthouse (Aus after work for a quick one and Courthouse on a weekend afternoon, but yeah, I've found nothing like the kind of pub I would normally inhabit. (I can't stand all those fucking fruit machines they've got here). I agree with...

    sydney dust storm

    I've been saving my pennies for a while now, but a few places that I've enjoyed so far: Serial Space for random abstract/noise/drone evenings - Chippendale. The Australian - boozer that sells pints of James Squire for $5 - Just off Broadway on Bay St. Fish on Fire - Fish & Chips (I go for the...

    It's funny, I put the spare room up on Gumtree a while ago (probably not a good idea..), but one bloke came around within hours of it going online. Anyway, he turns up and we're chatting n'stuff, turns out he has his own coffee company (why he was looking for a cheap room I don't know), I...

    I'm new to the world of coffee, I started with Cappuccino's then Flat White's and now Piccolo's, so maybe it's destined to be Espresso. Have you tried the coffee at Astor on GPR (the old Valhalla cinema)? That's my favorite place for a coffee at the moment, the place next door (gelato place)...

    Magick!

    I wish I had more money so I could keep buying Fulgur releases, good quality stuff that. There's a nice selection of Spare material at hermetic.com

    Hey Luka, I will most certainly take you up on that offer next time I get over that way, I'm into my Piccolo's at the moment. ;) There was an interesting article in the Guardian today about dust storms and the diseases they carry, it brought back memories of The Exorcist II I watched a few...

    GPR is good for books and a bite to eat (I'm a big fan of Fish on Fire). Glebe Road itself is tucked off GPR opposite the Market. As for the best thing I would have to say the Bourke Street Bakery at the bottom of Devonshire Road in Surry Hills, that and the coffee (Campos/Toby's Estate)...

    Yeah, there is certainly a division, not something that has a distinctive line (it never does), but you certainly feel a difference north/south of St Johns Road. Mitchell Street is a strange one, I've been meaning to head East down there sometime, towards Ultimo. Have you been down Queen...

    heh, yeah I'm of the opinion I would be quite happy to stay here over the various other parts of Sydney that I've visited so far. It has an interesting history and the sort of community feel I used to get in Hackney. They've fucked the park up opposite the AB Hotel though.

    Fuck London

    I'll never forget the first time I exited Dalston train station at around 9pm on a warm balmy Saturday night, I was living there within a week (I originally stopped off in London for a party while on the way to start working for the YHA). Spent the next 6 years living pretty much within the same...

    I'm currently in Glebe, been here since the start of the year. Left the UK about 12 months ago. Are you a Sydneysider then Luka?

    The I'm on Mars feeling was over by around 9am, with normal service returning early afternoon. I walk to work across a couple of parks with good views over the city, and on this morning you could barely make out the sky scrapers, one building that did stand out was the crows nest tower which...

    House 09!

    There was a lot of familiar stuff (for someone who hasn't been out for quite a few years) Paperclip People, Phuture, eDancer, he even dropped French Kiss. It was good, just not what I was expecting.

    Magick!

    heh.. Well I've already mentioned above that I like playing around with certain packs of cards (maybe 2 or 3 decks in a whole sea of awfulness). I don't use them for divinatory purposes and would agree somewhat with Mr Sloane's assessment. I have had interesting things happen when using them...

    Magick!

    You're a feisty one.. It's hard enough trying to articulate stuff in person never mind trying to type in a small box while in the middle of doing work. Personally I find the cards can be a good tool for meditation, and that there can at times be a correlation between the act of immersing...
