01. Barbie movie (complete with pink cocktails – granted, they involved Malibu – from The Budgie Bar). Seriously, this movie is everything. Hilarious, thoughtful, fun, a little bit sad (in a reflective way) – simply brilliant.
02. What was really fab about Barbie was that I went to a preview screening and virtually everyone was dressed up for the occasion, or had a touch of pink, or were just really, really excited. The shared sense of sheer joy was palpable.
03. I really don’t talk about spin enough… a friend commented a while ago that her perception of spin is that ‘it’s basically a cult’. Yeah. It is. Anyway, this week my two favourite cults collided – a Eurovision spin class! I loved it so much.
04. This week’s Scandinavian Film Festival selection – Camino. Excellent scenery combined with grief themes (although still no strong desire to walk the Camino).
05. Dinner with old friends at the newish North & Common – food was delicious but the location was next level (see the cells above the bar?).
06. Watched/ing: WHAM! doco (Netflix) and yay for the new season of Below Deck Down Under.
07. Listening: Who S**t on The Floor at My Wedding? podcast. Crass and laugh-out-loud funny.
08. Thought we would have done #ALLTHEYARRA in the immediate vicinity, but no! Today we stumbled across a beautiful stretch that we hadn’t visited before, including Rudder Grange and the Alphington ‘swimming pool’.
