Flinders Street Station, lunchtime.

(An angle that you don’t normally see in photos.)

(Farnsworth Avenue, Footscray, last Sunday morning)

It may be costing $700 million, and it may be causing untold confusion and inconvenience while it’s being built, and the new name might be silly… but damn, that rolly roof is impressive.

(Yeah, there’s a slight glitch in the picture where a taxi was moving.)

Mind you, I’m still wondering why they put the roof on first before doing all the work below it. Won’t the roof get in the way of the cranes?

Way up on high, the clock on the silo says… not a lot at the moment.

Seen adorning the front garden of a house in Droop Street, Footscray.

Any ideas, anybody?

I got given a new wallet on Monday, so a couple of days ago I transferred the contents of my old, decrepit one into it. On the way across, I took this picture.

And now for a toast. (Tony and Rae are certainly deserving of one, this weekend.)

This is my Sunbeam toaster, still going strong after over a decade of toastie goodness. Happily handles crumpets and those big slices of bread from the delicious Vienna loaves I sometimes get at the bakery down the road. Yum.
