if you're the kind of Australian who's interested in having a physical street atlas for the current year - be warned, UBD Gregory's is shutting down.

Rumor is Sydney, Brisbane, Adelaide, and Perth will get one more edition in August[?], but for everywhere else (seemingly including Melbourne and Tasmania), what's on shelves is probably the final edition.

now please excuse me while i tag spam

Walking up the stairs to watch the city from atop the rock, I am now standing under a few trees in which dozens of bats are resting and fighting for space. They are so preoccupied with each other, I might be able to reach out and touch them as they glide past less than a meter away from me

Spontaneously took a trip to cockatoo island to shake out the brain after work, and saw dozens of sailboats criss-cross each other. Four boats drove basically a hashpund pattern with a maximum of 3-5 meters distance, at speed.

Currently 1932 local, and I am watching hundreds or maybe thousands of humongous #bat fly East towards the ocean. It's like a Hitchcock movie, just with bats

One of my colleagues is pondering the lack of a great market to visit in Sydney. It is a bit of a puzzler.

"Even in Australia, you can visit some greats. Melbourne has several of at least the southern hemisphere’s finest: South Melbourne Market is perfection; Prahran Market has great produce and a strong local vibe; while Queen Victoria Market is a genuine tourist attraction that has been there for almost 150 years. Adelaide, too, has its Central Market, which is world-class.

"So … what’s going on with Sydney? Can you call yourself one of the world’s great cities when you don’t have a great market? Where do you tell visitors to Sydney to go when they want to shop for the best fresh produce and artisan goods like a local would, in a beautiful space surrounded by residents picking up a few of their favourite things."
