A lot of the Melbourne action has been in the western suburbs, so I've moved three (for the price of one!) to Monash University at Caulfield for some eastern-suburbs fun. Go and get them.

But.... there's a small catch - you'll have to get them during business hours, and you'll have to be brave!
Gnome or nanos
Harry the Gnome
Matt Patt Gnome

Now, say after me: "Hello, my name is Dr G Nome, and I am here to pick up a parcel."

Good luck. Remember you'll have to be very serious. The receptionist has no idea what's in the box, so make sure you look like a professor. How quickly can you grow a beard without a moustache? Can you sew some elbow patches on your jacket?
I assume she thinks it's a box of books or exam papers! \:D/ :twisted: \:D/
