highlyeccentricPartly for tree_and_leaf, who likes to see where her flisties live, and partly Just Because:
M'ville Uniting Church. K's cousin was married there in the sixties. I think it's probably a former presby church, but I wouldn't swear on it.
Sydney skyline from Illawarra Road, near the top of the Warren. Also, a forest of pedestrian signs.
Anarchist graffiti on the wall of the old RSL (not that Occupy = Anarchism, it's that there's a an anarchist graffiti project going on around here, and they just happen to also support Occupy. Mostly they seem to think that an absence of police, prisons or banks would make for a happy society). I find 'your job is no excuse for your actions' kind of... disquieting, given it's right under the plaque commemorating wartime service.
The Post Office cafe.
After I'd tidied and re-organised the balcony a bit:
Ficus; Nom Nom Plant, who's been moved into a more festive, and higher-sided pot, which might keep him a bit more sheltered; daisies in the round pot and the one on the ground; lemonbalm and basil in the long pot; chives on the stool.
Various herbs; a tomato plant; one solitary petunia, outliving his fellows by a good twelve months; and K's chilli plants right in the front.
Same again, but in the other direction: Chilli, rosemary, chilli, mint, and then snap dragons in the big pot.

Well, my first thought was that it looks as if it was built by Scots, so I'd believe that.
I wish I could get herbs to grow (or anything except weeds, really - not that I have a garden right now).
