It was the launch of Chairs in Squares for the summer season today. We stepped out to help fill the deckchairs in Sydney Square for the TV and newspaper cameras. There was a man playing an African drum and inviting passers-by to accompany him on a pair of conga drums – like big bongos.
I couldn’t resist and had a bash. That was a mistake as my colleagues whipped out their mobile phones to take pictures and are threatening to use them in the City of Sydney internal email newsletter, the well-respected Round the Square.
Still, we got free fruit and a few moments in the sun which was very pleasant.
