A friend of mine just invented a new social manoeuvre. Check it: bumping into Said Friend he talks-up a great new-but-old dining venue. He's meeting two mutual friends and I'm welcome to join them. Peachy. So I call and tell them I'm dead keen. I don't hear anything more from Said Friend but assume he's definitely in. WRONG! When I got there he's there, but on a date! At a separate table! WTF?

I'll unpack it for you: orchestrate a group of friends to be somewhere at a certain time, then go ahead and schedule a date with someone they're not acquainted with. Result: your friends see you in an entirely new and desirable light and your date sees that you're incredibly popular and not such a hairy-knuckled lugnutz after all. Nice one Jack!

Only never again ask me to join you for mouth-watering tapas at the new nights at the old A Minor Place. Licensed too! Brunswick notches up another perfectly delightful little drinkery-meets-eatery. Wankers. I live in Abbotsford - one decent café, three S&M clubs, precious little else. Back at A Minor, the kangaroo skewers are a highlight but my friend's a lowlife. Did I say lowlife? I meant genius.
