This will hurt me...

Shed. Opossum Bay. December 2012. C'mon, it's the HOLIDAYS!!!!

There is no there's no old piano playin' hot. As far as we could tell, there are no people laughing a lot. We most definitely did not see any eyeballs peepin' through smoky clouds. Oh, wait a sec'. Oh, it's a YELLOW door.

That's right, the lads and I took a road so less travelled that the map provided doesn't even work any more!

Seen better days #976. Lindisfarne North Primary School, Lindisfarne. May 2012. Theme Thursday again and the place is like a ZOO. Well, if you knew where I worked, 'madhouse' would be inappropriate (if somewhat more precise). I've been busy. So very busy. I apologise. Not good enough, I know.

Could use a lick of paint. King Street, Sandy Bay. November 2011. Another Tuesday, another Q and A stolen from Sunday Stealing. This time: The Madness Meme, Part 1 1. Have you ever licked the back of a CD to try to get it to work? I can't say that I have. 2. What’s the largest age difference between yourself and someone you’ve dated? It depends on one's definition of 'dated'. Running by mine, that would be three-and-a-bit months. 3. Ever been in a car wreck? I was in a car that went through a fence into a field once. The car wasn't wrecked though. 4. Were you popular in high school? You'd have to ask someone else. I'd suggest that I was somewhere about the middle. 5. Have you ever been on a blind date? I'm not certain I've ever been on a date . 6. Are looks important? Of course they are! Should they be? That is a different question... 7. Do you have any friends that you’ve known for 10 years or more? A few. 8. By what age would you like to be married...

Seen better says. The Derwent Estuary, as seen from Errol Flynn Reserve. October 2011. Theme Thursday again, and far be it from me to try and give you some kind of cheap THRILL by penning a brief Drabble inspired by the above tired boat. But I shall. He loved that boat like he loved his wife. In many ways she resembled the little runabout: THRILLing to begin with; developing into a sturdy and dependable relationship of shared joy. And it was. Eventually his eye was drawn to bigger, flashier models. Faster, sleeker, smoother and seemingly capable of giving him whole new range of experiences. She knew it too. It wasn’t quite resentment and it wasn’t quite resignation. There was anger. Nobody likes being taken for granted, especially after giving your all for so long. So early one evening, amidst a gentle chop, over the side he went.

Be very careful Henry, I have it on very good authority that there is a grumpy old troll™ living in this here shed…

Entrance to aged care. St Johns Park, New Town. April 2011. Slight case of nerves today. I've a very special mission, and much depends on it. No, it doesn't involve comments M.I.A. Roddy's birthday...
