New cafe in East Geelong - Winifred's

This morning our small writing group met in a new cafe - Winifred's Corner Cafe (open 6.30am-4pm Monday to Friday and 8am to 3pm-ish Sunday at 26 Garden Street, East Geelong.) corner of Malop and Garden Street opposite the Botanical Gardens and the stern Queen Victoria in her greyness. A lovely modernised cafe that used to be a pies and chips space. When we lived at Shenton in the 80s our boys had a friend they called 'Pommie' and his Dad ran the corner shop then. Pommie used to rap-dance with the boys in the hall behind our manse. Anyway today I was there with two friends and we ate muffins, or salad with our coffee - very good - and did some writing. It was full of people so already it is popular. Winifred was a pet dog who unfortunately met with an accident. Winifred's Corner Shop is on facebook so check it out.
