then as driving back, going up the rd at tempe where the park is, almost get to Homer st intersection....and bloody rd blocked by heaps of people carrying candles, and chanting... end up having to reverse and do like a 15 minute trip around the crap streets of Marrickville to get around....
was majorly cause it wasn't a official road block, just everyone standing all over the road....and when I finally got around after the big "short cut" saw...they had basically set up their own barricades and everything. Man....fair enough if its some religious event or something...but doesn't give them the right...to block the road, like they own it! they could have left a path in the middle for cars to pass.
called information...they thought it may have been some rememberance day for war in middle east or something... I got NFI!!
GRRRRR...........
Other than that....interesting drive to the city, Bondi. Been so long since I been in traffic was slow going...lots of red lights.
