Bridget Flack has not been seen since November 30, when she left Lygon Street in Carlton about 10am and headed to a Dan Murphy's in Collingwood before making her way to the Yarra River near the Collingwood Children's Farm. 

Ms Flack's last form of communication was a "general conversation" with a friend and colleague about 2pm that day, in which she said she was playing with ducks, Criminal Investigation Unit Detective Senior Constable Daniel Garside said today. 

Police believe the 28-year-old occasional DJ was around the Yarra Bend area in Kew near the Eastern Freeway when this conversation happened, and she has not been heard from by anybody since, nor has her bank account been active. 

The last time her phone was detected anywhere was December 2 in the same area. 

Ms Flack's sister Angela Pucci Love said her sister is a transgender woman, which could make her more vulnerable in the community and over the past three weeks she had expressed she was needing some extra help mentally. Source HERE

Police are trying to determine if the body of a woman found in Melbourne's inner east is that of missing woman Bridget Flack. 

The body was found in bushland in Willsmere-Chandler Park in Kew East at about 5:00pm on Friday.

sunshine and blustering winds...

sunshine appeals
but blustering winds
chill the air
duties beckon

past student...

PASSING THOUGHT: Student I taught 7 years ago - email today-'I very much enjoyed your company at school. You opened my mind to undertaking things that were scholastic in nature, but outside of school control; such as my english fictional story which you posted on your blog.' WOW!

The added surprise was that the student wanted to meet up with me for a chat and share his life journey... I was overwhelmed... That means several past students are wanting to meet me for a chat over the Christmas break... So thrilled...

what was I looking at?...

PASSING THOUGHT: Driving home from school in a bit of a befuddled, exhausted daze until I saw a head hanging out of a car window. The car was in front of me...The head looked like a black pig scenting the wind...But it must have been a big dog's head... But looked like a pig...

cold summer...

PASSING THOUGHT: 8th day of summer today dawned rainy and cold + I was wearing a long-sleeved jumper + warm coat + wondered if I should have worn a scarf as well...Was it really only a week or so ago that we had a dose of summer? Crazy weather in Melbourne...
