The Bridge

The Lennox Street bridge underpass is an example of the old local government planning proverb: revenge is a dish best served via permanent signage.

The Lennox Street Bridge pedestrian underpass in Parramatta. It's a shaded tunnel in a sandstone bridge. A large sign of a white woman, former Sydney Morning Herald columnist and failed state political candidate Elizabeth Farrelly. Superimposed on her is the text:&10;&10;Two brutish square-jawed faux-functional holes whose every semiotic cue says, 'enter here and invite Clockwork Orange-style violence upon your person' will increase the heritage value how, exactly? This is a clear instance of architectural theory running roughshod over the facts.

An old photo I took in Mildura, found during a clean out

A street sign tyhat says "Mildura Rural City Council: Making this the most liveable, people friendly community in Australia". Underneath are a series of icon sayimng these are not allowed: cycling, skateboarding, rollerblading, using scooters, and drinking alcohol.

It retrospect I should have recognised this as a warning about the quality of the takeaway pizza I’d just ordered.

A bright yellow sign stuck in a shop window. The text says:&10;CASH&10;IS FREEDOM &10;USE IT OR LOSE IT!&10;GOVERNMENT IS PLANNING TO INTRODUCE PROGRAMMABLE DIGITAL CURRENCY&10;&10;It's all pretty cooked.

A moon over the ocean at night, with light reflected off the water. A boat is barely visible.

Wet

Greyscale image of quite a lot of rain hitting the ground near a drain. In the background someone is exiting a building.

Sticking an AirTag on my Kindle just saved me again. If it wasn’t for this I’d have lost it many times by now.

A reader with a brown cover. An AirTag is attached to it using a stuck-on pen loop with a key chain running through it.

As above

A bridge over the River Lee, with the bridge and a building reflected in the water.

In one of the University College Cork buildings they have a Mac (the same model that my Dad bought for our family and that I used as a kid) on display in a glass case, like it’s some sort of early hominid tool. I’ve rarely felt so old.

A genuinely shocking number of students on campus. I wish things were more like this at home.

Young people sitting on a shaded lawn amongst trees. It's the University College Cork campus.

James Joyce Bridge

An angle arched bridge over a river at sunset. The blue and yellow sky is reflected in the River Liffey.

Love a cavernous train terminal

A large single structure train terminal, large enough to accommodate several high speed trains.
The front of a baroque cathedral. It's the Iglesia de Santa Isabel de Portugal in Zaragoza, Aragon.

Rosella outside the window

A tree without leaves. A small red and blue bird is visible (a Rosella). Blue skies in the background.
