Wheres the best HSP in the city? Kebabs at Lonsdale was ok but wouldnt rave about it.
I think either CBD Kebabs or Flinders Kebabs near the aquarium were highly regarded in the Melbourne HSP Facebook group when I was on Facebook years ago
It's too cold to do anything productive so I've resorted to playing this fantastic MMO: https://onemillioncheckboxes.com/

Movie Review. Sherlock Holmes and the Voice of Terror. 1942. Youtube.
A blatant WWII propaganda movie, adapted from the WWI propaganda Sherlock Holmes short story.
The purpose of the movie is to tell the working poor and underclasses of Britain why they should support the government in the war against Germany even tho the working poor and underclass are abused and exploited by the British capitalist class.
The reasons given were culture, we are also defending working class culture, Justice, the British justice system is worth defending against fascism, Home, London and by extension the rest of Britain is home to all. IMO these were good and true reasons.
The working class did support the war effort and as a reward they were given the National Health Service and social housing.
America made a similarly motivated WWII propaganda movie called "The Negro Soldier" by Frank Capra.
The reward was the Civil Rights Act.
The working classes had "Why We Fight" and the reward was the GI Bill and School Lunches.
Australia and India et al, being colonies, needed no reason to fight and were given no rewards.
It's done, all the terrace and balcony gardens are tended and don't need anymore attention until early spring
Oh man I thought today was gonna be cruisey, and I did finish nearly everything by 1pm and stretched out my time at uni a bit, but being the conscientious idiot that I am, I decided to do one last work task when I got back to make up a lil bit of the 2 hours I was away (even though the deadline isn't due for ages and nobody's keeping track of my hours at this job)...
...what was supposed to be a quick half an hour jobbie spiraled into hours because there was a fundamental issue with the entire thing - like, someone's property boundary might be so off that either they or Council are in big trouble. It's way beyond my experience or pay grade, but I just can't let a bit of good problem-solving go...
At least it wasn't outrageous, I came home around 4:15pm and wrapped up around 8pm. Dinner, shower, bunch of tidying up, and now bed.
Also bloody hell, I think I do need a new chair, or at least reevaluate my seating height; my neck and back haven't responded well to wfh today. Alright, NO overworking the next two days.
The Mill Brewery are taking over the Bendigo Hotel, and keeping the bandroom.
