Probably raped....

This is one of the gems from the completely hilarious videos over at The Onion, special thanks to Andy for tipping me off to their collection.

Sunday Wind Down...

After a big night on Friday my weekend was fairly low key but on Sunday I did manage to meet with Drew and his boy for a twilight dinner at the fabulous Gazebo Wine Garden in Elizabeth Bay.
We had a great catch up and Drew and I thoroughly enjoyed the view facing back into the restaurant as there was no shortage of hot straight boys to check out.
The highlight was one stunner in particular who was sitting down fairly close to us in that way that only straight guys sit with their legs wide open while continually needing to "re-adjust". The event that really piqued our interest though was when his girlfriend decided to sit (grind) on his lap giving him an extremely obvious V.P.L!! (visible penis line)

I really felt for Drew's boy who was unfortunately seated in the wrong direction looking back out towards the park so he had to deal with our pervy running commentary of it all!

The Weekend Kick Off...

I enjoyed a fairly chilled out weekend, On Friday evening I went to the opening of the Sidney Nolan Retrospective at the Art Gallery of New South Wales, it was pretty cool as we were able to view the exhibition before it officially opened due to the fact that the friend who took me along had loaned out 2 paintings from his own personal collection to be included in the exhibition.
For someone who loves Art as much as I do it was was a truly amazing experience to be able to wander through the galleries alongside a handful of serious Benefactors, Tycoons and National Treasure's while viewing a few of Nolan's greatest masterpieces - some which have never been publicly seen before while quietly getting to soak up the brilliance of his works with a glass of Champagne before the usual opening night crowd came in.

Kelly and Policeman 1964



I highly recommend seeing this show, especially for the highlights of viewing some of the rarely seen Kelly paintings from the MOMA's collection, also the epic Riverbend series on show for the first time in its entirety in a purpose built room with curved walls so it can be hung as originally intended by Sidney.

Life around the Harbour

One of the best qualities that Sydney offers to those who live here is the ease of access to an abundance of really amazing locations around the harbour and coastline, that once reached make you slip into the mode of being on holidays in no time even though you have only travelled for 5-10 minutes out the CBD.

I caught up with my friend Howard today and as the day was fairly overcast to begin with we arranged to meet for lunch in Potts Point. (as opposed to North Bondi where we normally would head to catch some sun and waves.) Within minutes after sitting down the clouds were parting and the weather was starting to really heat up so Howard suggested we make the most of it and head down to Red Leaf Beach on Sydney Harbour.

Within minutes after a quick stop at my place to grab a towel and throw on the swimmers we were down by the water soaking up the surroundings. After warming up in the sun we walked out to the edge of the pier, Howard dived - with expert precision!, I just jumped of the edge before we both swam back in to shore completely invigorated.

It's funny that the Amazing Howard finds himself here on the blog as its the reason how I came to know him in the first place, a good while back I was at a party at Home Night Club and he recognised me from this blog due to the fact that he's a New York ex-pat who is friends with Juan from Boozhy and Oliver, Scott's ex-boyfriend.
It's been a true gift that he came up and said Hello as he's a great guy who has been an absolute pleasure to get to know and spend time with, much like my other friend Drew whom I've met as a result of the blog.

These shots taken on the dodgy 1.3 mega pixel camera in my phone don't do the view we had today justice but you get the idea...
