Cosy underpass
I wandered past an underpass on Boundary Street in Darlo this afternoon and noticed this nice little piece attached to the bricks, so I went back this evening and took a few shots.

I’ve no idea who this Phil James guy is, but it’s a nice idea. Perhaps minus his name plastered all over the print.
Gives the underpass a very cosy feel.
City News on Darlinghurst Nights
The City News published a piece in this week’s paper titled ‘Local goes global via a blogger near you,’ featuring us and the guys behind Life In Chippendale, XSSAT and Fitzroyalty.
Michael Gormly wrote the piece, and he’s well placed to, blogging at Kings Cross Times.
One of our favourite local blogs Nosey In Newtown appeared too. True to form, the writer behind the blog stayed anonymous. We leaned that way initially, and have to say it’s pretty weird seeing our faces on the front of the local paper, but ultimately didn’t take anonymity seriously enough to follow through.

A warm welcome if this is your first visit to Darlinghurst Nights – take a look around, and if you spot something interesting get in touch through our contact page. You can subcribe to our RSS feed here. Welcome!
From Oswald Lane to where
Our occasional contributor BT picked this one up a while ago.

Apparently a few of these metaphysical additions to the council’s street signage have appeared recently.
Hot cross buns
It’s basically Easter and shops on the Darlinghurst strip have hot cross buns for sale.

I like Croissant D’Or at 117 Macleay Street. Their macaroons are amazing. And their hot cross buns (pictured above) at $7.50 for half a dozen seem pretty good. Infinity bakery, next to the fire station at 225 Victoria Street, has delicious hot cross buns for $7 a half dozen.
Then there’s Fratelli Fresh on Macleay Street.

Six hot cross buns for $15.95 and it’s a “Speciale.”
