there is a loud doof doof bday party across the lane tonight. It's a good party, lots of laughing and dancing and flashing lights. ๐
When I lived in Fitzroy I'd invite myself to parties like that. I found the trick was to find tenant, explain that I lived near by and ask if it was cool to hang around. Bringing my own booze, sparking a fat joint to share and being the bouncer at the local club that ran to 5am helped too. From about '03 to '13 I knew so many people in hospo, there was almost always people I knew already kicking it.
