>More from Adelaide

>Yes. I know. Still here. But the hostel is good as are the people. I’ve also been looking for work. Had an interview but apparently the company decided to go internal with the role so not even the agency got a slice of that pie (how true that is I don’t know. Being a sceptic it could be a well rehersed polite way of letting you down gently).

I have work for tomorrow and possibly Tuesday. Nothing special. In fact, anything but. It’s working for a party hire business cleaning chairs and tents. Labour intensive with a lowly wage (assuming I get paid…I’m still waiting from the last job). But at the end of the day its money. I have just booked another week here and I will continue to seek office work whilst pursuing the blue collar work. Emma text to say she is coming in 2 weeks or so, so I will probably be here for that. I have to coincide with the train to perth (my next destination definately) which only leaves twice a week (today, sunday, being one of those days).

Treated myself to dinner last night. Finally had Kangaroo. I had my hair cut last week and during the conversation with the hairdresser he mentioned his brother had a cafe/bistro in North Adelaide, on O’Connell St. He said they serve Kangaroo so I definately had to pay a visit. The Roo was served on a pollenta cake with ratatouille and a red current jus. Tasty! All for the princely sum of $19.90! Well worth it. It was a popular place. I was fortunate to get only one of 3 tables that were not reserved. If you’re ever in North Adelaide do check out Caffe Vagabondo
