hypnotic brass ensemble

Hello.
My absence can be explained by an insipid combination of jetlag, hunger, general laziness, a mild outbreak of skin-bacteria-somethingsomething and 5kg of homegrown lamb now residing in my two freezers.
Here are some things I noticed today (numbered. Props to all mathematicians out there):
1. Listen to this. Hypnotic Brass Ensemble. Mighty mighty funkatron muchly.
2. Mach Frequency might just be the most amazing superhero that ever there was? Big call. But did any other superhero manage to bring down the entire boarder security of a first world nation for the greater good of his heroine? Nae. Winner! <3
3. I ate a piece of fruit today, and another piece of the same fruit yesterday, which I am unable to name. It's somewhere between a blood orange and a pink grapefruit. Thick pith, scarlet flesh, yellowy rind, sour but not spit-out-your-falseys. My money is on the latter variety but some suggested otherwise. It's time we all got better aquainted with fruits and vegetables. Kohlrabi, anyone?
4. I went for a walk up Little Lonsdale from Russell to William. There are three or so cafes I'm now dying to check out. And a few other interesting bars/restaurants in between the law courts and sky scrapers. Around the back of the Melbourne Magistrate's I overheard two fatties sitting in the gutter deciding upon lunch: "I'll shout you Maccas, love." Please see point 3.
5. I am engrossed with Alan Davies and Stephen Fry.

I'm at a loss as to where this blog will head, probably to a natural death. Like Dr Pepper, it may exist in tiny pockets of obscurity supported by desperate hangers on...

Listen to this if you miss Glasgow like I do.
