Sydney Symphony Orchestra, furniture shopping and packages in the mail

I accidentally stumbled (literally) upon a new cocktail bar that's opened up in Chatswood called The Avenue.  The decor is great and service equally as good.  I had the Electric Avenue cocktail jug (shared between 3 people - I'm not an alcho!)

On Saturday we went to pick up some flat-pack furniture hoping and praying that it would but realistically expecting that it wouldn't fit in my tiny Toyota Echo.  Guess what??  I managed to fit 2 wardrobes and a storage in there with room to spare!!  Amazing, I love my car.

On Sunday I went to the Sydney Conservatorium of Music to watch my cousin perform in the Sydney Symphony Orchestra - I found it really therapeutic actually, although I don't think I appreciated it as much as someone who actually knows what instruments are being played for example.

Yesterday I came to work to find the aircon was not working.  Uncomfortable is an understatement.  Productivity yesterday office-wide would've been pretty poor.  I set my office thermostat to 22 degrees but it sat at 25.3 for a while.  Ugh.

In more positive news, my office has finally put up a Christmas tree and it's a real tree.

And in even MORE positive news, I received 6 parcels yesterday and another 3 today.  Some are Christmas presents, some are Kay presents.

If you want to see what's in the parcels hang out for my next post!
