Coffee in a Sydney suburb Westfield was never going to score highly, and this didn't surprise. Arriving too hot, this was quite a forgettable flat white. Actually quite an agreeable flavour.

We may be out of the RV phase of this trip, but we have immediately found a new, and entirely differnt way of disrupting our night's sleep! Arising properly at about 9.00, we're greeted by Jaypee (Stacey's boyfriend) who is working from home today. He offers us a lift to the rail station, but of course we decline, because we're British and unnecessarily polite. Travelling from Carlton ...
