Once in a while I remember to whip out my #Moment #anamorphic lens that I can attach to my phone:

50 years of #PrestonMarket. I've only known it for maybe 15 of those, but I love it all the same.

Today's musical thing:

• the Adam Schlesinger tribute album Saving for a Custom Van.

The footy observation box still stands.

Walking remains a key part of my mental health regime. After a week stuck in a small room at home on innumerable Zoom calls, I need the peace and quite of the changing ground under my feet, and some music in my ears. I don't need to go far – my immediate surroundings change constantly, and there's always little things to notice. Late last year, a building that seemed like it would never change (having remained the same for over a decade) was suddenly emptied of the detritus out front, and demolished:

So it goes, in our suburb.

I wasn't early enough to enjoy the morning fog, but what a crisp morning! I braved a street I once lived in (some memories are harder than others), and pushed further west into some streets I rarely visit anymore, full of the usual mix of terrifying mansion-like things amongst the preserved prior world.

There are tiny hints amongst the blankness – subtle things, not the wall-high scrawls – I appreciate the little notes.

Remnants of another milk bar that succumbed to the ravages of our times, though I struggle to remember the particular nature of this one.

Really, it's just nice to be out, seeing nothing in particular.

Musical accompaniment was something new (competely unheard) and something old (but not listened to for a long time):

• Nat Vazer's Is this offensive and loud?.
• Luna's first album Lunapark, having just discovered the demos.
