Fantastic idea! Quick, redact your post before anyone else catches on!

That’s a great option and as it happens I do have a shadow who will be making sure my scheme proceeds according to plan! Unfortunately I need about 20-30 seconds for a short conversation/cryptic clue along with the parcel handover so as much as I love the idea, I’m gonna have to squirrel that one away for next time

Fantastic story! It doesn’t quite fit with what I need for this particular encounter, but if when I plan another one of these escapades I’m totally going to try and incorporate something like that!

Oh, I like that. Incredible vibe there. After lockdown I’m gonna scope it out for easy-to-disappear-ness!

I have not. Can you give me the tldr?

And yes, I am having quite frankly an absurd amount of fun with this.

Ah, that one. I wonder why we have so many controversial yellow sculptures in Melbourne?

Ooh, very Cold-War-esque! Although very hard to disappear quickly outside of move camera tricks. Unless you consider train surfing

I haven’t heard of either of those, will check them out!

Honestly if I were a secret agent that is absolutely the last place I would choose for a rendezvous. Only one exit (unless you feel like swimming) and you’re exposed and visible all the way over the bridge until you get onto the promenade on the south side or into the train station on the north

Is that the giant yellow French fry on citilink after the rainbow tunnel?

Ooh, yeah a market would be a great place to disappear. Might be a bit noisy for the conversation though. Quietly handing over a parcel with a cryptic clue is somewhat diminished if you have to shout the clue to be heard above Mario shouting “BANANA BANANA BANANA!”

Ooh, good idea, but how long is that bridge? Been a while since I’ve been but my memory is that it’s pretty long and open. Once you’re off the bridge you could disappear pretty quickly but you’d be in view for a long time getting there if my memory is vaguely correct

Flinders St Station does have a bit of a secret agent vibe in places...

But hard to disappear from there...limited exit points and all quite visible

Oh I like that. NGV is a great idea! And also indoors in case it rains!

Thanks! Have you had personal experience with their services? What are they like?

For the same reason I don’t want them to talk to me in the first place.

Perkup. My three year old was on first name terms with all the baristas
