Earthlings
Watched this for the first time last night, after it was recommended to me by a friend, Turin Bridge.
Although I’d much rather have not seen it (we humans would much rather deny the existence of this cruelty) but now I knew about the film, I had to challenge myself and make myself watch it: to do otherwise would be ignorant.
And I’m glad I did. Its hard hitting and awful to watch...

MOO.com Summer Party
With a bouncy castle, lifesize Connect-4 and Jenga as well as a colourful umbrella canopy, the stage/yard at 32-38 Scrutton Street last night was set for a young start-up birthday party. And with the drinks flowing and hot dogs a-sizzling, the chatter started and we strapped ourselves in for a great evening hosted by the super lovely people at MOO.com.
Happy Birthday was even sung and I came...

Melbourne
So its been quiet in The Darling Times bloghouse this week - because I have been on holiday! (And yes probably should have been updating constantly at the time but I’m still not the most up to date with uploading from my phone on the move. Must get better at multitasking.)
So Melbourne baby!
Tuesday
An Englishman, an Australian and myself flew to Melbourne early Tuesday morning,...

"Aim High, Go Low" →
Sadly, I cannot really do attempt a full review on this place, as I didn’t really get involved in the cocktails, and I know that without trying these, I wouldn’t understand the place to its full potential.
BUT I can at least give you an idea of the vibe. Having had a couple of my favourite whisky-apple&orange juices at my absolute favourite Shady Pines, we wandered up Crown...

Project video by the beautiful Rolien, and she writes:
“this is a movie i made using a doll, a chair and a bag of plain flower, referring to the superficial overconsious world we are living in. we all grow up thinking we can do everything and be everyone. people do things because other people do so, without acting with a reason, just because they do. drugs, sex,...

Bubbles
So there’s this chick that cycles around Sydney Uni. She’s probably about 40. But that’s normal stuff. The best bit is that she’s attached a little brightly coloured windmill to the back and a bubble-making contraption. So she’s constantly blowing bubbles from the back of her bike as she rides around. How great is that? And even better, it makes everyone smile and...
