Scenes from Smith Street, Fitzroy
14 May 2005, 18:56
I think it’s fair to say that Smith Street in Fitzroy has long been considered Brunswick Street’s poorer cousin – less hip, less esoterically trendy, fewer night spots and restaurants… but I like Smith Street a lot more… it’s less pretentious, more “real” and many many more photo opportunities.
If you’re ever down that way, check out Shop Sui on Gertrude Street – a little bit of home for the Japanophilically-challenged…

In other news, I’ve become a part-time grogger (this has absolutely nothing to do with Smith Street).
After the particularly hideous sickness post “Nick’s” party a couple of weeks ago I’m off the demon drink and have turned to the light (read: soft-cock) beer.
It’s now my mission to find the tastiest light beer in Australia. Now, when are they bringing that god-invoking low-alcohol wine over here (and can you actually buy it in Australia yet – anyone know)? God knows we (ahem, I) need it more than they do…
And no, before you (smart – arses) ask, am not up-the-duff. People, please. Just looking after myself and the brains-trust (any more intoxication and my braincell count may very well run to nil)... Wakatta?
