Someone told me about this lovely little bus shelter made from a disused Oil Tank. I met the owner, a local farmer, who said he made it for his two children, who used to get cold & wet waiting for the school bus. The local council tried to make him take it away but they couldn't because it was on his land! Tee tee.
So you have been told.
You must turn left in the left lane.
The left lane is the Cahill Expressway and veers left across the top of Circular Quay. Going east to Bondi.
The right lanes are the Bradfield Highway and proceed to the Sydney CBD, Darling Harbour or the ANZAC bridge.
So what if you don't turn left?
Well there's a nasty camera.
Photographed yesterday on my walk across the Sydney harbour bridge to the Quay.
That B-Line double-decker bus has just come from Palm Beach. It works out of Brookvale Bus Depot on Sydney's northern beaches. I worked there, and on this bus line, all through my university days.
Back in the early 19th century, lol.

I told her
But she didn’t listen
I told him
But he didn’t hear
The wall is there
The color is clear
The beat of your heart
Keeps me near
Take a breath
Count to ten
Push the wall
Start again . . .
I've been told its wise to leave the hoist up when letting a lift truck sit for a time.But I doubt there's much advantage when that period of rest becomes more permanent....HTT everyone!
My Grandfather once told me that Happiness is found when you stop comparing yourself to other people. One of these days, I'll give that a try : )

The Lesser Goldfinch
Lesser Goldfinches are tiny, stub-billed songbirds with long, pointed wings, and short, notched tails. They are most common in California and Texas, with pockets of local populations throughout the rest of its U.S. range.
Lesser Goldfinches feed in weedy fields, budding treetops, and the brush of open areas and edges. Depending on food availability, they may concentrate in mountain canyons and desert oases, but they are also fairly common in suburbs.
The oldest known wild Lesser Goldfinch was a male, and at least 7 years old when he was recaptured and re-released during banding operations in California in 2015.

I told Tofu that Halloween will more or less be cancelled this year but for this photo he got a chance to wear his Halloween bandana which suits him particularly well.

What if I told you none of it was accidental
And the first night that you saw me, nothing was gonna stop me?
I laid the groundwork and then, just like clockwork
The dominoes cascaded in a line
What if I told you I'm a mastermind?
And now you're mine
It was all by design
'Cause I'm a mastermind
You see, all the wisest women
Had to do it this way
'Cause we were born to be the pawn
In every lover's game
If you fail to plan, you plan to fail
Strategy sets the scene for the tale
I'm the wind in our free-flowing sails
And the liquor in our cocktails
What if I told you none of it was accidental
And the first night that you saw me, I knew I wanted your body?
I laid the groundwork and then, just like clockwork
The dominoes cascaded in a line
What if I told you I'm a mastermind?
And now you're mine
It was all my design
'Cause I'm a mastermind

Pour toi seul, ami, open your heart,, told her, : Jolie fleur, don't really know you, all I know,
Tu es bien jolie amie!
I was told the flowering gorse on the common was looking pretty good so I spent a lunch hour this week just wandering about seeing what I could see. I used a polariser to really bring out the colours.

"No one told me that
We would make it this far
When all I have to show
For it are these, scars
Can’t you feel all of my damn regret
I’ve been trying hard now to forget
Every time that I tried and failed in the past
Nothing will last
Never thought that I’d miss you
It was never part of the plan..."

I told those two minions that the top half is supposed to be blue and the bottom yellow. I told them that they should stand on their hands. They are all geared up and ready to go help the Ukrainians. I hope they call and gather up all of their friends to go help defend the country.
I'm told I have a tendency for being rather verbose. Well, what can I say? School teachers used to report I was too quiet. Now apparently I talk too much....says my boss, who always starts a question with, " A question for you......?" Before asking the question. Why not f-cking just ask the question???
But still I find myself sometimes struggling for a word. Especially when I'm distracted, star struck..... spell-bound. Hmmmm. Bobblehat. And so oak nuts.........tree eggs.............oh yeah, acorns!!! I can be a goof, an idiot, a tw@t! With a smile.
I'm a bit taken by this. It's a story of sorts. Film and music. Of a woman, the 'ifs' and 'buts' of her life as she ages. By the Lumineers, "The Ballad of Cleopatra" www.youtube.com/watch?v=tXsQJhoauxc Now you may need an explanation which is here atwoodmagazine.com/ballad-cleopatra-lumineers-review/#:~:...
cowardly attack - the police told me that the woman was dead and she was probably the target of the attack, a confused and possibly drunken lover. My dad would reappear and definitely just wants little excitement.
Truth be told Heidi's level of anticipation is rather low, and she's been spending the shortest day of the year appropriately: asleep in the highest cat bed of the scratching post.
And truth be told, I miss you
And truth be told, I'm lyin'
When you see my face, hope it gives you hell

We were told much about the pacification of the favelas, and how a high police profile had changed life in these communities. With this in mind I shot this street scene, and ventured to the end of what was a dead end street.
At the far end I found three police men (you can see one of them in this shot) skived off and doing nothing. Could this have been a stake out, I wondered, it certainly wasn't an undercover job.
They gave me to understand I was not to take their photos. I did the numbers, decided I wasn't looking for the unwinnable argument and left them to their high profile task of favela pacification.
- Someone told me that he could not live anymore.
He asked me what the purpose of living was and what it means.
- Do you want to know my answer?
What was your answer?
- I said.. If you don't know what to live for then just live for me.

This image was created for my beloved Orpheus (Xie Lian), a person I love and will love in many lifes, as eternal story connected with red thread of destiny. This is not an anime character copy, this is my personal character and feelings, my soul and attitude.
No one’s told the daffodils about the pause to Spring
And no one’s told the birds to roost and asked them not to sing
No one’s asked the lazy bee to cease his bumbling round
And no one’s stopped the bright green shoots emerging through the ground
No one’s told the sap to rest, deep within the wood
And stop the sleepy trees from waking, wreathed about in bud
No one’s told the sky to douse its brightest shades of blue
And stop the scudding clouds from puffing headlong into view
No one’s asked the lambs to still the springs beneath their feet,
To stop their rapid rush and quell each joyful bleat
No one’s told the stream to halt its gurgle or its flow
And warned the playful breezes, not to gust and blow
No one’s asked the raindrops not to fall upon the earth
And fail to quench the soil in the season of rebirth
No one’s locked the sun down, or dimmed the shimmer of the moon
And even in the darkest night, the stars are still immune
Remember what you value, remember who is dear
Close the doors to danger and keep your family near
In the quiet all around us take the time to sit and stare
And wonder at the glory unfurling everywhere
Look towards the future, after the ordeal
And keep faith in Mother Nature’s power and will to heal

we were told that the farmers sometimes replacs the fences a bit, and then next year another bit, until there is hardly space to walk. If there have not been walkers for 3 years in a row, they can occupy the path again and add it to their grounds.

Have I Told You Lately — Van Morrison
Have I told you lately that I love you
Have I told you there's no one else above you
You fill my heart with gladness
Take away all my sadness
Ease my troubles, that's what you do
For the morning sun and all it's glory
Greets the day with hope and comfort, too
You fill my life with laughter
And somehow, you make it better
Ease my troubles, that's what you do
There's a love that's divine
And it's yours and it's mine
Like the sun
And at the end of the day
We should give thanks and pray
To the one, to the one
Have I told you lately that I love you
Have I told you there's no one else above you
You fill my heart with gladness
Take away all my sadness
Ease my troubles, that's what you do
There's a love that's divine
And it's yours and it's mine
Like the sun
And at the end of the day
We should give thanks and pray
To the one, to the one
And have I told you lately that I love you
Have I told you there's no one else above you
You fill my heart with gladness
Take away all my sadness
Ease my troubles, that's what you do
Take away all my sadness, fill my life with gladness
Ease my troubles, that's what you do
Take away all my sadness, fill my life with gladness
Ease my troubles, that's what you do
I was told about a country lane near petworth which was tree lined with rape fields coming right down to the road so I had to investigate of course!

My favorite flower.
My mother told me:
When I was born, She saw this flower from the hospital window.
She has been my flower ever since. It opens every year on my birthday.

I told him, this here's,
The queen of my double wide trailer,
With the polyester curtains and the redwood deck.
Sometimes she runs and I've gotta trail her.
Dang her black heart and her pretty red neck.

Sorry, honey, I couldn't resist!
I was told by some local birders that seeing a White-eyed Vireo in Cuyahoga County in November was a pretty nice find. I was also told that getting a clear shot of one of these quick movers is pretty tough. I would have to agree. Taken in a thicket of low bushes at Huntington Reservation Metro park.
I told you yesterday that since the tin mines closed in Derby the town began a steady decline. Young people moved away, sporting clubs closed (I'll provide a link below to a photograph of the famous Derby football ground with the story about how that happened). The school eventually closed and the only thing that kept people coming back to the town was the beautiful scenic walks and the annual raft race on the Ringarooma River: www.examiner.com.au/story/646680/derby-dam-and-crazy-raft...
But eventually this died out through lack of volunteers to run it. But one sporting thing did save the town - Mountain Biking. Here we see a string of shops that have replaced antiques and craft shops (and sadly a wonderful secondhand bookshop in an old house has now gone too as it has been converted into tourist accommodation). These new shops are selling hi-tech bikes and gear, as you'll see in the next photograph...
Meet you downstairs in the bar and hurt
Your rolled up sleeves in your skull T-shirt
You say "what did you do it with him today?"
And sniffed me out like I was Tanqueray
'Cause you're my fella, my guy
Hand me your Stella and fly
By the time I'm out the door
You tear me down like Roger Moore
I cheated myself
Like I knew I would
I told you I was trouble
You know that I'm no good

I told Lexi I look cuter wearing this than her...so I had to provide proof! She made it for the current Suicide Dollz round!
My neighbour told me that during the War, his uncle was responsible for single-handedly bringing down no fewer than 9 Messerschmitts. He was the worst mechanic the Luftwaffe ever had! This picture is of a Spanish built version from the 1950s, Hispano HA-1112 Buchon complete with RR Merlin engine and rounded wingtips.
He told me he always knew how to fly. "You need to align your chest and your arms, that is all it takes. The problem is, I am too heavy now." He said and winked at me. I laughed but deep inside, I knew he wasn't lying.

Ireland week I told you!!
The Morrigan and the Celtic Cross.
It was said that St. Patrick combined the powerful pagan symbol of the sun circle with the cross to help ease conversions to the new faith.
The Morrigan and her crow foretold the death of heroes. She was a goddess of war, birth and death. She was later associated with the Lady of the Lake who escorted the dying King Arthur to Avalon. She landed as a crow on the shoulder of the great hero Cuchulain when he was mortally wounded in battle.
