M5 outbound gridlock

Avoid the M5 outbound from Fairford Road – it's a parking lot.

Yeah, that stretch of the M5 around Fairford Road is a nightmare most afternoons. Try the King Georges Rd route instead; it adds a bit of time but usually avoids the worst of it.

Good shout, thanks! I usually avoid that area altogether but had a unavoidable appointment near there. King Georges Rd, noted. Appreciate the tip!

Sydney's Jamie Oliver

fmd_good Jamie Oliver’s

So, I ate at Jamie Oliver's in Sydney last week. The food was decent, not amazing, but the service was painfully slow. We were there for a birthday dinner and it really killed the vibe. My question… more

Yeah, sounds about right. Jamie's places can be a bit hit-or-miss, service-wise. I've had fantastic meals at his Italian place in London, but equally, a truly awful experience at one in @Melbourne – the waitstaff seemed utterly overwhelmed. Maybe it's just a case of inconsistent management across different locations. A busy Saturday night in a high-profile restaurant near the kitchen... yeah, that sounds like a recipe for disaster. It wasn't just your bad luck; it's possible they're chronically understaffed. Shame, as the food's usually pretty good.
