Hello peeps

How goes it?

Edit: love you all, thanks for the welcomes! Have a photo of the cat that comes to visit me sometimes, most recently a few days ago!

You're back! Fucking grouse man! This is such a tight little group, you know some people miss you when you're not here. I had to look at trains because you weren't here. I mean, I look at them anyway, but I thought of you and wondered if you were also train enjoying. Well, were you?

Edit; had alcoholic ginger beer at a park near a train station, sorry for effusive language. I'm ok.

Ay thanks!

Actually, no, not really. I caught a train home on Halloween (after a bit of a tiki tour around on the trams), but that's about it

I'm heading off on vacay next week, so I'll have plenty of time to catch trains then

Even plotting a trip to the railway museum, if they decide to be open

Always! Remindns me, a few days after taking my break from here, I went down to Willys prom (one of the few places I hadn't been). Saw the cutest baby emus. So cute! I almost want one

So cute! Did you camp down there?

Becomes one with the emus

No camping from me, unfortunately I don't even know how to, but it was still a cool trip. On top of the cute emus, there was also a cute parrot (?) with zero fear response trying to steal my chips. It kept landing on the table and walking up to my chippies, and every time I tried to shoo it away, it would hop back a step then just stand at me like "what're you gonna do? Hit me??"
