This is gonna be a shortish entry detailing the last two days (well evenings really).

On friday evening, Chris, Myself and one of our mates Rob, went cruising down the river to Newfarm Park to go the Brisbane Power House (Basically a theatre) to see the Australian Guitar Quartet, commonly known as Saffire. We got there about 2hrs early, due to the fact that we werent sure how long the City Cat would take because more people than normal would be using it, because the Riverside Expressway was closed because a two metre long and 0.5cm deep crack was found in the bridge. So we got our tickets sorted, and then went downstairs to the bar/restaurant called Watt. We ordered food, I got the Pork and Cabbage Dumplings with a side of chips and Aioli, Chris got the fish and chips and rob got the Kangaroo Spring Rolls. I rekon that we as australians have the tastiest national animal in the world :). Anyway, when we finished we went upstairs just in time for the doors to be open. We went in and sat down, where the Compere told us that the theatre had a phone jammer, if someones phone went off, someone from backstage would come out and jam....  The concert was so cool, they were playing rennaisance music with a modern twist. They finished with two songs from riverdance, and then came back on for an encore and played a Deep Purple song. Chris and Rob got their new CD signed, I would have but my money stash was a little low, so i missed out *sad panda*. We got the last city cat back to the uni and that was basically the night.

Last Night (saturday) a whold group of us caught the bus to the city and walked across the bridge to southbank. We met up with someone at the train station and met two others outside the Restaurant. We were all their for one our mates birthdays. We went to the restaurant that we were going to go to, but we didn't make a reservation (for nine people no less) so they obviously didn't have a table. We tried a place a few metres down, they had tables but it was raining fairly heavely, so they couldn't use the tables. We tried across the street and they had tables free, so we ate there. I had a 350g rib eye and a morton bay Bug (small lobster/big prawn). Now at this point the rain was getting heavier, which wasn't too bad because we were undercover. When we finished there, we went back across the street to a place called "Cold Rock". Its an ice cream place where you pick your ice cream and add anything you want, from snickers to jelly babies etc. Then we went and caught the city cat back. Me and one other stood out the front in the rain and got fairly wet, but we were the smart ones, because out of everyone there only four of us had rain jackets/coats. It was a pretty good night. When we got back to the uni, we took the long way back to college for some reason, even though it takes like twice as long. As I said it was a good night even though it rained a fair bit.

This will probably be my last update until like late november or early december. Because its getting to that time of year when exams etc are near.
