Garden And The City

It's 5:30pm and I'm on a 14 hour shift today at work. Instead of telling you that I'm tired, I'd thought I'd describe some of the delights of Garden City. We have The Ironingboard House (the occupants have since moved out but always had an ironing board and huge basket of washing in clear view of the front window), The Caravan House (which really is a caravan on top of a house), and The Pug House (guess who lives there?).

GC Characters include The Rain Lady (a neighbour who when Joe said 'Lovely day isn't it' once replied 'Oh, prepare for rain!'), Ethel on the bus, and The Mad Man (who runs around flapping his arms when its windy - hang on, I do that sometimes too...)

Special mention goes to ROAD! (there is a house with a sign outside that just says 'road' in huge letters - and its not even on a road its on a boulevard), and my favourite Kitty Car Park, where a particularly manky but very friendly cat is often found.
