Arrived in Sydney this afternoon. The absolute CARNAGE around Darling Harbour puts Ascot and Aintree to shame. Absolutely HORDES of pissed-up people (far more women than men incidentally, mostly wearing fascinators and short skirts) wobbling about all over the place, all the bars and restaurants...
They don't have the means to identify them to the extent we do (Starlizard)
They won't put the effort in to make deals work (SA players in particular)
