Fri 5 October 2007 - Do I look like I know where I’m going?

People must think I look like I know where I’m going. I seem to frequently get asked for directions. And maybe they’re right, as it seems like I’m usually able to help them.

The bloke on Centre Road, wanting to get to Chadstone? By car? Okay, go straight down Centre Road, left at Warragul Road, over the bridge at Oakleigh, over the highway and it’ll be on your left. No no, don’t turn onto the highway; just go straight across. You’re welcome.

The couple getting on the 64. Does this tram go straight? Yeah, down to St Kilda Junction, then it turns left.

The girl from Brisbane, at Bentleigh station last Saturday night. Yeah the Cats did do well today. Oh you need to get to Footscray? Me too actually. Get this train to Melbourne Central then go downstairs; the trains to Footscray are pretty frequent. Oh, Whitehall and Bunbury Streets? Yeah I know where that is. … Here you go, that’s Bunbury Street right there. Whitehall Street’s about five minute’s walk. Have a good night!

And just yesterday, two ladies in Little Collins Street looking for some place in the Block Arcade. Just go down to Block Place, there… follow that through to the arcade. You’re welcome.

PS. Saturday morning. And again last night! Excuse me, can you tell me where Parliament Station is?
