loved this place ..
I recall when it opened ..:slightly_smiling_face:)
The newsagents opposite the City side of the station I think was owned and ran by the Richardsons.

Life goes on.

When you catch the train during the day in Melbourne, and assiduously tap on and off, and notice nobody under 60 bothers, that’s when you are old. So is Public Transport effectively free in Melbourne for Gen X , C and millennials, or do they have weekly/monthly passes?

Public transport should always be free.

Like, ya goin’ that way anyway mate just give us a lift.

Was at the gym and in a class HIIT workout. Without glasses I can’t really read what each exercise is, so I kind of have to walk up the board and squint to read. And have some hearing loss.

Instructor: ‘you’re just like this old dog. Can’t see well. Can’t hear well. But you crack in and get the job done!’

Lol. Young people these days!

Does being ■■■■■■ off at younger people that wear Nirvana T-shirt’s and don’t know any of their songs or lyrics when I ask them count as a reminder I’m getting old?

Dropped my 8 year old off at school yesterday before walking to the one I teach at. A student at her school (probably around year 4 or 5) walks past me and asks his apple watch ‘hey siri, what are the yellow pages?’

I thought to myself I’m not that old, but bloody hell I’m old.
