Itinerant Tendencies

Recent far-from-unpleasant weather and intellectual strain make us inclined to wanderlust. As the man said, “We are much inclined to live from our rucksack, and let our trousers fray as they like”. Luckily for us, Australian Friend gathers no moss, and has been jet-setting about, kindly taking interesting pictures meanwhile!

Australian friend says: " I think this was Melbourne airport."
We do enjoy clear signage!

"That was the view of the toilet. The best part about it
was the yellow tiled wall. (Yellow brick wall?)"
Well, quite. Let us improvise!
Goodbye, yellow brick wall
Where the dogs of society howl
You can't plant us in your shithouse
We're going back to our blog

"This looks like a small sign but is actually a wall!
Changi Airport, Singapore."

As the other man said, "Not all who wander are lost". Or indeed, as Anne of Green Gables was wont to gabble, in bygone sentimental days, "When twilight drops her curtain down and pins it with a star, remember that you have a friend, though she may wander far".
