Renovation or removal? It appears that the sunglasses shop in Broadway is being boarded up. Though only at waist height. To keep the munchkins out.
I suppose we can expect to see a new establishment appearing here soon.

This signage for drunks is getting so passé. Seen it before. But I suppose these vandals think they are being original.

Very cheap Oak Chocolate milk at Coles. At $2.67 for 2L, down from $5.35, that is half the standard retail pricing. Makes you wonder what their mark up is if
Cheap Oak Chocolate Milk at Coles
Very cheap Oak Chocolate milk at Coles. At $2.67 for 2L, down from $5.35, that is half the standard retail pricing. Makes you wonder what their mark up is if Coles can offer it at that sort of discount.
At least it was on the shelf. I quite often see cheap deals on Oak and find that everyone else has already taken advantage of the offer. Oak Chocolate milk always seems to run out first.

Don’t feed the birds, avoid water hazards (photo)
Signs in Strathfield telling the public to refrain from feeding the pigeons to avoid creating water hazards.
Of course, that might not be exactly what they meant when putting up the signs.

Parliamentary officials say a report allegedly exposing Labor MP Paul McLeay and Christian Democrat Fred Nile as having accessed online pornography is flawed, and does not identify the minister or the MP directly.

People are having a laugh about Paul McLeay and Fred Nile being caught surfing the net on government computers. But isn't this an example of problems with dataretention? Leaked reports, leaked logs, much the same thing?

Sushi Train at Town hall is closing
A sign in the window of Sushi Train at Town Hall (Sydney) announced the continuation of the $3 all plates deal at Sushi Train Town Hall until Sunday 5 September.
Good news short term, bad news long term.
The sign also announced that Sunday 5 September would by its last day of trading, and apologised for the short notice to customers, being dated 1 September.
From talking with the staff it appears that their lease was not renewed. The shoe store on the corner of the Energy Australia building is being moved on too. Looks like the landlord wants to do renovations and up the rent.
A pity to this nice sushi restaurant being moved on. Now have to find another good in the city to eat.
