Nice [...]

Just back from meeting up with Karen aka Kazza the Blank One for some dessert in Civic. I had originally suggested we head to Cream (good food, coffee, service and hot waitstaff all around), however, when I showed up, there was a large private function, with lots of girls in stiletto heels and mini-dresses, and [...]
