Upon the good ship Titanic

It's not all fun, food and games in Melbourne, there's culture too!.

Despite heavy demand for berths, Vickie scored passage for five on the Titanic Artefact Exhibition at the Melbourne Museum. We were each issued with a White Star Line boarding pass indicating an actual passenger on that fated cruise, and were tasked with following the fate of our respective identities. Kim's doppleganger, The Countess of Rothe, survived, unlike David and I who honourably gave up seats on the lifeboats and went to our watery fates.

All that chivalry is exhausting and we were soon ensconced in groovy Cutler & Co. slaking our thirsts, followed rapidly by crawling to another bar further down hipster central Gertrude Street.

It must end soon.
