Pokes the Internet...
Jun. 10th, 2015 10:51 pm10:16pm: Oh dear...this refrain again...I certainly hope it's weather related (from the rain that's set in) because the internet has been an absolute ass tonight. So slooooow.
However, I have exciting news! The Winter Festival is coming back to Sydney and it includes the outdoor ice rinks! One in the City in front of the Cathedral and the one at Bondi Beach! This is great! I found out about it yesterday actually because it was in a newspaper at Mrs S that I had to use for something. What luck I did too! Although I think my friend Caroline told me about the skating last year, so maybe I would have found out about it anyway.
Looking at the website for the Winter Festival - which is difficult with the internet being a butt - I see that tickets need to be booked for the open air ice rink in the city, which makes sense. I hope the tickets aren't too expensive...I can't remember how much it was to skate at Bondi. Oh well, as long as it's not like $40 or something.
Right I've managed to find out...it's $24, plus a service fee - rude! - and I don't see any discount for bringing one's own skates. Shame...I could spend a bit extra $32 plus service fee and get a hot chocolate in a souvineer mug for my trouble. Or perhaps I could see if a friend wants to come. The only issue with that would be I'm probably better than any of my friend's at skating, so it would be sort of annoying to have to stick with them going super slowly. On the other hand, there's not point in going if I'm not going to stay with the hypothetical friend.
Although, I haven't seen my friends, so maybe I should ask, just to see and I've done so on Facebook - with the best friends filter on.
What else to report? Well, I turned in quite early last night, which did me rather well, I think...although I was rather sleepy when I got home this afternoon. Weird.
Before I head off, I'd like to mention Million Dollar Minute, in the past two nights the winner has got the $20,000 (plus some additional safe money) and run! I wonder when will the next champ who wants to win big come?
On that note, I better be off, even though luckily I don't have to go to work early tomorrow like I thought I might have to, still I want to get the proper amounts of zzs.
Goodnight all!
