Coffee tips
In a comment to my previous post, the boldly titled "Anonymous" questioned why I was calling a babycino a bubbacino. Fair call. To clarify, here are some similarly named coffee styles with explanatory notes.
Babycino: an espresso cup filled with frothed milk.
Bubbacino: an espresso cup filled with frothed milk served in a jail cell with a large, lonely, tattooed man.
Bobacino: an espresso cup filled with frothed milk served by a Mandalorian bounty hunter.
Babarcino: an espresso cup filled with frothed elephant milk.
Babayagacino: an espresso cup filled with frothed milk from a cannibalistic Russian witch.
Barbarinocino: an espresso cup filled with frothed milk served by a young John Travolta.
Bulbarcino: an espresso cup filled with frothed milk by a barista with a cranial nerve palsy.
Baabaacino: an espresso cup filled with frothed milk from a black sheep.
Not all of these are commonly available, at least not in Adelaide, but keep an eye out. They're worth trying if you get the chance.

I am visiting Adelaide for fun, with plans to have a good time. Is it ridiculous to ask a person who is both the father of a young child and a junior doctor how to have a good time in Adelaide? Are there things to do other than drink full bodied red wines?
Thank-you.
You've asked the right person. I am all about fun. I've had the day off today and here's what I've done so far:
Got up early, tried to put the Hatchling back to sleep, failed, got her dressed, shipped her off to childcare so I could enjoy my Day Of Fun, went back to work, filled in my timesheet, drove to the shops and bought a big box of nappies, looked briefly at stereo systems to replace mine which is on the way out but then failed to buy anything because I don't understand technology any more, looked briefly at CDs to play on my stereo which doesn't work but couldn't fund anything because I don't understand music anymore, bought a coffee and chatted to the barista who inexplicably doesn't have a cranial nerve palsy, was seized by a sudden urge to buy hot chips but had to settle for a meat pie instead, stumbled across a CD by Dan Sultan and bought it to play on my stereo that doesn't work, went to the second-hand bookshop and looked at books that I don't have time to read, then came home and hammered out this reply.
Hey man, this is really livin'!
