I went walking, what did I see?

I live in a bit of a dodgy suburb. It ranks pretty high up there with the top areas for welfare benefits and crime.

With that in mind though, I've never been scared around here in general. Oh sure there was that time Map Guy came face to face with a would-be burglar through the glass door and the time the dog chased an intruder down the side of the house. Both of those times I shat myself, but other than that, I'm not one to just be afraid.

I feel safe walking the streets around here because I know a few of my neighbours and because I know the liklihood of being attacked by a stranger is minimal. Plus I normally have a big fuck-off dog with me.

It's a good thing, because when I do go walking, well, I find some pretty interesting things...

Maybe they are sorry their accessories are shit?


An awesome ride on digger... out for bulk rubbish collection
(yes I checked before taking it)


An organ, dumped in the middle of the Open Space
perfect for impromptu dog recitals


The word "Tricky" drawn in to fresh cement...
What? I totally found it like that! *shifty eyes*


A burnt out car at the bottom of our street
There's been three in that exact spot


An unusual inscription on a painting
in a local office

I will spare you the used condom photo.

What weird stuff do you see in your neighbourhood?
