Free ice creams being given out at Flinders St Station if anyone wants one

Continuing to post retro shops that still exist among us.

This one is the Mitcham North Newsagency and Local Post Office (LPO) on Mitcham Road. Love the old fonts and signs.

Spotted recently in Blackburn - this fantastically old school fish and chip shop on Canterbury Road

This is just embarrassing.

Is this really the best information signage we can put up during a major planned disruption? I think we can do much better.

The bird swooping warning at Richmond Station is back!

It took three months of complaints to get this removed last year because it was blocking next train information. For some reason it's come back but in a slightly different form.

What's the point of these information screens if you can't even read the information?

We have strawberries in mid-April!

Update: they're delicious

I'm afraid reports of the Box Hill Bus Station escalator working at lunchtime today are no longer correct.

As of 6pm it's now broken again. Guess I'll keep the counter going!
