    TBH it was pretty crap before, it's just got worse.
    Are you in Paddington Basin? I'm there and I can see right across Hyde Park. Oh, and Paddington Station.

      Now if you had said it was looking out over the red light district, I would have been impressed

        Client sucked though.
        How do I get a job there. How much did you have to pay.

                My best was the classic view of Sydney Harbour with the bridge and opera house behind it. My last two contracts I've been in windowless rooms in old industrial buildings in the grim north. Good pies at dinner time though.

                    Harry's Cafe de Wheels ! Also decent pies at King X Cakes and Pies.

                    The Aussies think they are good at pies but not up to Lancashire standards I'm afraid.
