As a uni student I used to be a permanent fixture on the Acland St cake shop scene, living in Elwood close by. My friend Jane and I would down huge amounts of those fruit tarts and chocolate eclairs while we kept up a steady supply of froathy cappucinos, followed by an alcohol fuelled binge later on in the evening. If only my ticker could stand such gluttony these days - I guess, my arrythmia (irregular heartbeat brought on by alcohol and overeating) is a blessing in disguise as it is keeping the weight gain off and teaching me everything in moderation - boring!,
