[Travel Blogo - Breaking News] See It Or Flee It - The Good The Bad And The Butt Ugly Australian Destinations: Big-wig Surfers Paradise made it onto Australian Travellers top ten list, but not in the way they were hoping for. As did Zeehan and Queenstown of Tassie, scoring number one and two spots as the ugliest towns in Oz. “Surely it (Queenstown) is a shoo-in for most butt-ugly town in Oz, with those denuded, claustrophobic hills that ring the town, the cracked footbaths and shop owners who treat paying customers like trespassers,” writes Suzi Petkovski, who is brutally honest and takes a refreshingly real approach to Australian travel.
[Freedom From The Mundane - A Writer's Blog] The Welsh Are Here: I ordered a pint of Tennent's Lager and waited for GC and HRH to show up. After almost an hour and well into my second pint, not only had I lost the table I reserved for us, but I was surrounded by 50 Welshmen all with hangovers and trying to shake the pervious nights drinking. One Scotsman in a kilt amongst a sea of red and green - I wasn't without conversation for long.
[Dolly, Alice Cooper & I] Sickbus Chronicles - Part One: All web work accomplished we decided on a few more drinkies. We were a tad peckish by now and nearly entered a local Oyster Bar until I advised against it warning my fellow boozers that "Oysters taste like sandy bags of snot" and besides we had an Italian to go to. We skidaddled through the backstreets of Brighton and arrived gracefully outside Piccolos just as our fellow travellers were entering the establishment. What followed was a most excellent meal punctuated, at least in Mr F's case, with quick trips across the road to the adjacent hostelry for several black rum & cokes as the restaurant was rumless.
[Becksposhnosh.blogspot.com] Becks & Posh: misses out one of the area's darlings, The Blue Plate (although it does get a brief nod in the Eating at the Bar section instead). Mi Lindo Peru and Emmy's don't get a mention either, despite being two good reasons to visit the Bernal area. The Good Life Grocery, a good 5 or more minute drive away in Potrero Hill inexplicably does make it to the list, however. The Chowhound editors need a lesson in geography.
[Becksposhnosh.blogspot.com] Becks & Posh: Bay Food Blogger of the Week #1 Eggbeater: There are some really good sites out there, each one a little different or unique in some way. In this new weekly feature, I thought it would be a good idea to point you in the direction of another local food blogger. We're not talking about the blogs that were already mentioned in The Chronicle. I want to highlight some of the blogs that you might not have heard of already, blogs that deserve some of your attention too.

[Becksposhnosh.blogspot.com] Becks & Posh: Bay Area Blogger of the week #3 Marga's Foodblog: Although there are quite a few Bay Area Food Bloggers who live in the East Bay, there aren't so many who concentrate on sourcing food and restaurants in that neck of the woods, especially in further away places like San Leandro and Castro Valley. Marga is an exception to the rule. Her well-organised blog with easy to navigate categories is a must-read for anyone dedicated to finding great food in the East Bay.
