We were lucky enough to spend an evening with our Scottish friend Helen when she had a few hours in Brisbane last Tuesday. Along with our friends Andrew and Louise, we started the evening at That Thai on Racecourse Rd and reminisced about the many good times we all shared together in London. I always love listening to Helen when she talks, she makes me feel at ease and I love her wicked laugh.

As Andrew and Louise are Racecourse road locals they took us down to Milany, the gelato place owned by Tatiana Grigorieva – the pole vaulter – and her husband. It was absolutely fantastic. I highly recommend popping along their for a cold treat next time you’re in the vicinity.

Sadly the evening ended way to early and we said goodbye to Helen not knowing the next time we’ll see her again.
