Nah, daylight savings kicked in last week. Was 8.30 - and we were more than unusually tired. Went to Sydney Thursday night to see Phantom of the Opera, it was OK, but a long day. It's a 3 1/2 hour drive to where we get a hotel, then an hour on the train. But the problem we had, all around central station was flooding and it killed the train system. We finished at the Opera House about 10 - and should have been back to the hotel around 11.15ish; nope - 1.30am. Trains kept being delayed and cancelled, was crazy. We were standing on one platform where our line should have come every 15 minutes; and, it took it 75 minutes to get out of central!
But, that's kind of good - will give me a story for the office Monday, otherwise, all I got is, 'Yea, the show was fine'.
Oh yeah, I forgot about DST.
Flooding huh? What a crazy winter and spring we're having. Here it's rarely stopped raining and they say it's going to continue until Christmas. I'm a bit over it. I don't mind rain at all, cooler weather and all, but it's usually interspersed with sunny days and we just haven't had that many this year. I want to talk to management! Lol.
It sound like you had a bit of an experience, I assume in Sydney. Crazy bloody place that is. I hope you have a good weekend though.
Ah, all we get in NSW is rain lately too, and because the ground water is full - any rain is turning to flash flooding. It's a crazy situation, with dams that were at less than 1% capacity in some regional areas continuing to break their levels.
But - enough about water, let's talk about homelessness. Did you know that October 10th is International Homeless Day? A timely prompt! I cheated a bit with your prompt, but it felt right to discuss fruit ;)

What a nice gesture you had with those people, you even took away the gift you had for your mom. Surely you were rewarded twice as many fruits to replenish your mother what you had offered her. It's good that there are still people who feel sorry for what happens to their peers because every day I see people who don't seem to care how others live but them. I congratulate you for your good heart @lordtimoty
