Melbourne buskers have been hit by COVID, but they are coming back...
Since Nov.2020, they're being paid $200 for a 4-hour stint in the ANZ City Vibes program.
Singing and wind instruments are banned.
A good place for buskers https://t.co/hxPpSwbUzA

little girl and a horse...

PASSING THOUGHT: Late Friday afternoon- relieved+ exhausted as usual...Driving home in a rather numb state, then saw a little girl+her Mum by a farm fence near the roadside...Little girl called a horse...The horse wandered over+bowed his head close to her...I drove on smiling...
