SBS tonight - Florence Foster Jenkins (1868-1944)-elderly heiress+determined to rise to Carnegie Hall as opera singer. Problem=she strangled words+notes till her entertainment had comedy-farce value. But was famous. Meryl Streep+Hugh Grant offer stunning insights into her life. pic.twitter.com/k9CLGaNl3U

still bay waters...
And Port Phillip Bay offered its own version of silent stillness this morning... Waters and skies softly melting as one... No one on the pier... pic.twitter.com/mKlFly4h1W

silent highway...
A view of Nepean Highway this morning...Dromana Hub carpark is behind the arrow sign on the left and the Dromana foreshore is on the right...No Saturday morning traffic visible... quite eerie...more so with the lingering fog... pic.twitter.com/xYiqblOQid

a sign from the ducks...
Just before shopping today, however, as I opened my car door, I noticed some visitors... I felt encouraged to check Port Phillip Bay across the road from Dromana Hub... Yes...a sign that is a good idea... pic.twitter.com/pxJdo7dVBn

Saturday morning shopping...
Unpacked dishwasher + Saturday local shopping + short walk - unhinged by some rising panic again...At least I saw a little of the sea...So far, procrastination is minimal...so far...Here are views of Saturday's Dromana Hub carpark at 9:30am - with lingering fog...hardly anyone... pic.twitter.com/cNonvJgUQM

GOOD NEWS: A young police officer actively supports troubled youth...He ferries them to weekend football matches, even though he is not a lover of football...🙏👏🙏 https://t.co/RSw8OBHxEy pic.twitter.com/E6rJYCwZrb
