It’s in the air
You could smell it in the air. This was the second or third properly hot day of the season but the 100%-chance-of-rain downpour was about to hit the city. I was walking from the office to the bus stop and suddenly a massive moist wind blew down Exhibition Street. The question was whether I would make it home before the skies opened up.
At the other end of my bus trip, I was but five hundred metres from home when the thunderstorm started. Enough for my to get almost-entirely-but-not-quite drenched from head to toe.
YPR #63.5 The ride that almost was
We almost got Captain Chow along. And we almost got Dr Lam to wake up at stupid o’clock. And we almost got six of us for a Friday morning ride.
But for the weather, injury and illness.
Dressed to the nines
After a long and tiring day at work, it was going to take a lot to make me laugh but I saw something which managed to get a chuckle out of me.
I was near the end of my short bus ride home when I saw an interesting local. An elderly citizen, dressed to the nines, walking purposefully down Johnston Street. Sparkly blue frock, nice shoes and elegant pink hat. There was something not quite right though. Maybe it was the square chin, maybe it was the manly gait.
And of course, right after this, a guy who wearing black nail polish and a dog collar got on the bus.
Only in this neighbourhood…
