Phantom of the Opera.

Today I went to see the latest production of The Phantom of the Opera. I thought it was a fantastc show, though at times it was hard to hear words during songs. Definitely recommended. :)

Pick Ups.

Last night I went to see a play at the Fringe Festival called Pick Ups. The show contained several skits all based around people trying to pick each other up. It was face paced and funny and definitely recommended.

This is England.

I just saw the movie This is England and really liked it. I haven't seen a good movie for a long time! The film was thought provoking. moving and heavy at times. I definitely recommend it if you're after a powerful but highly entertaining film.

A trip of indulgence.

For my birthday Greg organised a trip away to Hepburn Springs - including three nights of accomodation in a cabin AND an afternoon of pampering, which included access to a mineral spa and sauna, a one hour aromotherapy massage and a one hour facial. After that I was floating..

We also went for a walk to the springs, had lunch at the Boat House cafe on the Daylesford Lake and made it to the Dayelsford chocolate cafe!

Definitely a birthday experience I will remember! :)

Here's some photos from our trip:

Birthday.

It was my birthday on Saturday and in the evening I went to a Thai restaurant with friends for plenty of good food and wine. We finished the night with more drinking at a local bar.

Here's some pics from the bar:

A new public holiday?

Today I read in the paper that in the Russian region of Ulyanovsk, September 12th has been declared a Day of Conception and couples are given time off work to procreate. There's an idea for a new public holiday in OZ!

Tanti's Birthday.

We celebrated Tanti's birthday on Saturday 8th September at a Korean BBQ restaurant. Here's some pictures of the occasion:

Experimenta Playground.

On Friday night I met up with my friend Darren who is visiting from the UK and while wondering around Melbourne we came across a set of giant tea cups with plastic pink babies sitting in them. We noticed that there were people in the tea cups driving them. Well.. we just had to stop and find out what the heck was going on. We found out that it's an exhibition called Experimenta Playground which is art meets technology meets media and best of all.. it's free!! The exhibition included interactive exhibits as well as film and artwork. You can watch as your shadow takes on monstrous features or compose your own symphony with falling shapes of colour or watch a chain reaction involving rockets, fire and explosions... etc etc. Well worth a visit!
