tales from an ordinary world

1999-08-31

Another Netizen pub interview, ie. after they pass the initial interview you take them down to the pub and see how things go...The pub in this case was the Charles Dickens in the city, which is pleasant enough (if you can avoid all the TV screens with sport on them). After a reasonable amount of Newcastle Brown, I tagged along with 2 of the others - we went into chinatown and had steamboat for dinner, whilst the others all wandered home or wherever. It was the first time I'd actually had steamboat, and it seemed (to quote Benno) "like an asian fondue party". But definitely worth a go.

As I walked home from the tram, the sky was full of clouds except for this bit that seemed like some huge paw had ripped it away...By the time I actually reached home though, the clouds had oozed back to regain their lost ground...
