Credit where it’s due
Posted by clubwah on April 29, 2008
We’re always moaning on blogs, which face it, are a means to allow us to vent out frustration with the added bonus that a few people might read what ever it is you’re on about. So, for one night only I’m going to mention a few good things, starting with:
The Tullumarine/Calder Freeway Interchange
This is a piece of freeway design genius that has to be experienced to be believed. Once one of the worst freeway bottle necks in Melbourne it is now a free-flowing and impressive looking piece of road that connects two freeways and includes seem-less of and on ramps. Well done VicRoads!
Nathan Buckley, media commentator
I hate Collingwood and took perverse pleasure whenever Bucks did a hammy in his later years. I always figured him to be a hard, humourless bastard but through his football commentary duties with 3AW and Channel 7 Bucks has shown he’s quick witted, intelligent and of course highly informative and reasonably opinionated about our great game. Well done Bucks!
The potato cakes on Platforms 4 & 5, Flinders Street Station
These freshly made potato cakes are fish and chip shop quality despite being made in the pissy little kiosk. These are so yummy they kind of make you want your train to be delayed so you can get in line to get a few. Their popularity ensures you always get a fresh batch and the kiosk proprietors always ensure there are plenty on hand to satisfy the demand. Hopefully it’s like this on all the platforms. Well done couped up seller of battered tater!
The food trolley lady at work
It’s getting on lunchtime, you’re too busy to go down to the food court and you’re still hours away from getting the train to grab a quick potato cake. All of a sudden you hear “MORNING, MORNING TROLLEY” to find a feast of tempting fare including sandwiches, risottos, chicken schnitzel and “cheesy balls” for around the $5 mark. Well done mobile vendor of lunchtime joy!
Srabulous on Facebook
In which I just whipped the arse of Grods Goddess Bron. Well done Wah!
Please feel free to recommend anything that genuinely deserves credit.
