Forgot to catch the train. My soggy ride home. Oops!

24/2/2012GeneralElissa

All too much before the first coffee

22/2/2012GeneralElissa

Pedestrians, politicians and other flotsam ‘n’ jetsam

3/2/2012GeneralElissa

PEDESTRIANS Given I’m still rather car-shy and road-shy, I’ve been spending more time on the footpaths wrangling pedestrians – and politicians it seems. This afternoon I encountered the best pedestrian ever! AnRead More…

23/1/2012GeneralElissa
