Re: NSW CoffeeSnobs "Roast-Off"...
You joke... on an average school day,. just getting the kids to school and back 4.3 km ...I go through round-a-bouts 36 times. There are 9 round-a-bouts to get to school. To get to my mothers house(entirely different route) from the school there are 9 round-a-bouts.
There are days where I travel back to the school in the evening to drop off then again to pick up son who has basketball training, so theres another 36 times (totalling 72 for the day).. and now he coaches little kids soccer there one day a week also. And some of those days I would also go out again to drop off then pick up eldest daughter at her PT job,.. (totalling 108 times around a round-a-bout for that day)
. So thats at least 324 times per week just to get the kids to their regular events,.. but if I add these to the rest of the running around I do for them and my usual errands ,. I estimate that I would go around a round-a-about at least twice that many times,.. since the shops and most of their friends live past those initial 9 round-a-bouts and then more round-a-bouts further along the trip.
In Canberra..its a case of... when in doubt, stick in a round-a-bout. Did I mention I hate round-a-bouts.
ok,.. nuff...now back on topic.... ;D :

The roastery is located in Sydneys southern suburbs Remy (Caringbah for your GPS), and a fairly direct route off the M5, so you shouldnt face the prospect of a lot of traffic. Besides, if you can find your way around the ACT, you should easily be able to find a needle in a haystack!
