Friday daze


New Westfield Centrepoint.

I had 2 bad night sleeps in a row, way too much beer and smokes and the car show absolutely killed my legs (strange!) somehow I managed to (just) keep on rolling. Yesterday we planned to hit the beach but it was a crap day so Jess, Byron, Christina and I hit the city to check out the new Westfield Centrepoint.

Parts of the centre reminded me of some big Asian malls, maybe Hong Kong and Singapore. My mum ran a fashion business in Centrepoint for many years so as kids my sister and I practically grew up in the heart of the city. I didn’t at all recognise any of the old Centrepoint though, they’ve really gone all out on the new centre. It’s still dark like the old but each store front has it’s own concept (unlike the old centre having generic shop designs on the outside), some of the shop designs are pretty rad too.


New fixie shop at the Galleries Victoria.


Later that afternoon Christina and I hit the refurbished Strawberry Hills Hotel. I was feeling pretty tired until they served me this cool bottle of Asahi. Made in Japan unlike the made in Thailand Asahi everyone else seems to be stocking. Makes me so happy.


We then hit Jazushi, a small Japanese fusion restaurant in Surry Hills. We’ve walked past before and wondered if it was any good, turns out the food was awesome, we’ll definitely be back for more. We were there for Michael’s B’day, Michael and his partner Kerri run fashion label Amar. Really nice people and they’ve got some really interesting friends which made for a great night.

Halloween


Suga getting ready.


These teeth rocked out. You basically get the material you need to make the 2 canine teeth fit perfectly to your gums.


I couldn’t see shit out of these contact lenses.


The entrance!


My T for laughs.


Robbie.


May (so cute!).


Jon came as Slash (so good!).


LOL @ Gee.


Caroline.


Liz.


Gen and Kay.


Nat.


Murdering bananas.


Gen and Ash (LOL @ Gen).

Crazy party last night. I was super out of it. Got home at 5.30AM, chucked hard and passed out!

Lucas

Yesterday Christina, Jess and I went to pay the latest addition to the Lock family a visit. Little Lucas is just over a week old and would you believe I got a go at holding him?! I’ve never held a baby before so it was a pretty special moment for me (I had a bad case of baby phobia for many years haha). I’ll be a real man one day!

Catch-ups


Sean and Liz. 2 great mates that go way back!

Last night I caught up with Sean and Liz for dinner and beers at The Clock in Surry Hills. I caught up with Liz not too long ago, she’s going through some major changes (great ones!), but I hadn’t caught up with Sean in ages. With all good mates though, it always seems to feel like you can start where you left off and the three of us catching up felt like old times.

Jess’ 19th

Jess had her 19th at the Löwenbräu last night and Christina and I caught the bus in (something we haven’t done in ages!) so we could get tanked. My mission was to keep up with the 19yr olds but I’ve cut down on the booze so much the past few weeks and my tolerance has dropped big time. I was smashed after two 1litre jugs!


MMMango.


B’day girl Jess and Suga (excuse freaky guy in the background).


Random!


Me, Jess, Suga and Norman (red flush!).

Nick’s 21st


I’m feeling pretty seedy right now thanks to all the champagne I drank last night at my cousin Nicholas’ 21st.


Penis cake.


Nicholas’ girl Romina.


Yummy canapés were served all night.


Nick’s B’day cake. Nuts huh?! Like me Nicholas is super into robots, he’s even studying mechatronics at uni.


At one point Nicholas’ parents put on a video they had made on his 1st B’day. I had a memory of it as he was crying the whole night but seeing footage of it just blew my vague memory out of the water and seeing footage of my Dad almost made me fall over. He looked so good! Highlight of the night for me, for sure.


Nicholas’ speech (looks like amazing cakes have always been the way!). He’s such a good kid.


After the speeches the entire room became a dance floor. My aunty Helen (Mum’s youngest sister), her guy Michael and my Mum getting down!


Guest book signing.


I was pretty wasted at this stage. Random snap of my sister Jamie at the car park pay station.


Richie and Jess.

Inception

Hoo-fucking-ray! I’m a Sci-Fi movie fan and Inception was the best film I’ve seen since The Matrix. Initially I thought DiCaprio was going to ruin the entire film for me (I’m just not a fan) but he played a fucked up guy so that worked out pretty well. Great concepts, a little cheesy, unbelievable and slow at times but I was left thinking and talking about it for hours (always the sign of a good film!).

Golfs at EC by Mark Pakula

OK I’ll get off the Golfs but one of the many mails in my inbox (I didn’t check emails whilst I was away) came from Mark Pakula who happened to be at the last Eastern Creek track day I did. He rattled off a few shots of my car + Tendy’s car too. Awesome shots as always!
