ON THE BEERS: Sam Galoti suggested to his old friend Peter Manning they “catch up for a beer soon.” That was 3 years ago, and Sam keeps suggesting it every time they bump into each other. “It’s so annoying,” Peter Manning told DBT. “He’s never actually suggested a time or place, but he always, always talks about it. I reckon he’s suggested it at least 20 times.” The pair met at university 5 years ago and they later coincidentally worked together for 18 months. Now they bump into each other on the street from time to time. “Honestly I really…

WILDLIFE: A Potts Point woman has rediscovered the joys of nature by stepping outside a swanky restaurant for a five-minute cigarette break in the park. Maggie Tunstall was joined by her friend Max at Lyne Park Rose Bay, near where they were having Friday lunch at the upmarket seafood restaurant Catalina. “Nature is so beautiful, it’s so good for the soul,” she said as she took in the sights and sounds of the park between puffs on her cigarette.

THE BASICS: If you’re a new mother who has lived in Vaucluse for a while, or a mum who has recently moved from elsewhere, this starter kit is for you.

ADVENTURE MAN: A local man who normally watches movies at home is tonight stepping out of his comfort zone. Before bravely stepping into the heavily air conditioned Event Cinemas at Bondi Junction, Ben Watkins visited the North Face store within Westfield to buy a $400 puffer jacket. “I heard the North Face jackets are excellent at keeping the cold out,” he told DBT. “I’m going to need it because this movie I’m seeing goes for almost two hours.” And, like virtually every other eastern suburbs resident who never leaves the city, the 34 year old has combined his new jacket…

FULL FLEX: It began as a way to keep fit and meet new people, but doing chin-ups at Bondi outdoor gym has turned into a complete obsession for one local man. Max Ridley spends hours every day perfecting his chin-up technique and flaunting his impressive physique to anyone who’ll notice. “I can easily do 30 chin ups without a break,” he told DBT. “But I don’t do any unless there’s at least a few people here watching me.” While working out, the fitness enthusiast often plays loud music on a portable speaker in a bid to attract even more attention.…
