Yo all, I'll be in Sydney from Wednesday March 15th through to Saturday morning the 18th.
Maybe we could organise a get together or something. I will be carless but staying in the CBD.

I work just down the road from the Carlton Crest. Somebody drove a car off the second floor of their carpark on the weekend.
I'd love to go for a drive, but alas, my car is under the knife.
Police investigate fatal car park plunge
An investigation is under way after a car plunged 10 metres off an inner Sydney car park, killing the driver and narrowly missing pedestrians.
The 34-year-old man was reverse-parking his car on the second floor of the car park at Haymarket last night when he accelerated and crashed through the guard rail.
His sedan landed on its roof, crushing a public seat in the pedestrian corridor off Thomas Street.
The man suffered head injuries and was taken to hospital in a critical condition but died a short time later.
Acting Inspector Mark Smith says an investigation is under way into exactly how the incident happened.
"It would also depend on how fast the car was going, so at this stage we're not sure so there are obviously going to be further investigations," he said.
A report will be prepared for the coroner.

Yeah I read that over the shoulder of someone with an MX newspaper on the train today. It really sucks having to be at 0.00BAC, that's 2.5 hours per standard drink, even with a meal probably 4 hours for a schooner of new.
Sigh.
