“Sod the wine, I want to suck on the writing. This man White is an instinctive writer, bloody rare to find one who actually pulls it off, as in still gets a meaning across with concision. Sharp arbitrage of speed and risk, closest thing I can think of to Cicero’s ‘motus continuum animi.’

Probably takes a drink or two to connect like that: he literally paints his senses on the page.”

TOTALLY PARK LOKKED

I didn't get much writing done, but I remembered to poke my little Sony around some tables this weekend. Top to further down: dinner at Park Lok, Caucasian artefact in Milton Wordley's tiny garden, breakfast at Park Lok with contraband ginger (Zingiber officinale) stolen from the kitchen at Tasting Australia, lunch at Park Lok, dinner at Russell's in Willunga. Talk about get around round ... photos by Philip White
