Thursday/Friday 6/7 December 2007
After breakfast, there was nothing for it but to head off in search of exciting retail venues with a side trip to Chinatown for yum cha.
Madam rolled her eyes each time she arrived at the agreed rendezvous.
Limiting purchases to the new Byrds box set, two New Orleans collections and a Richard & Linda Thompson live set meant the credit card escaped lightly at Basement Discs and Greville Street Records.
She'd have been much more impressed if she'd been able to see how much I'd put back on the shelves. The damage could have been much worse.
That night we headed to Villa Romana with Madam's Melbourne Mates.
Another go at spaghetti allo scoglio, highly recommended after our previous visit to Melbourne, revealed it was still as good as ever.
