This is just a post about people doing their own thing, going about their day.  Nothing spectacular or wild & crazy, just a few ordinary moments in an ordinary day.

Most people are absorbed in their own small circle, or  busy on their phones, and don’t pay much attention to what’s going on around them.

A group of people wakling, one smoking, one on phone, two with orange drinks in their hands.

But sometimes the camera gets noticed.

And sometimes (well, often actually), I am not the only one.  So does he have a photo (or 2?) of me and if so, what did he do with them?  Delete? LOL

I would love to have overheard that conversation!

Nearby, Harry Styles may be about to get demolished but he doesn’t seem too concerned.

I hope that everyone had a good long May weekend!  The weather was great this year, for a very pleasant change.  On to summer…..  !!

    I passed it weekly, to & from a weekly appt elsewhere, and always thought it such a bleak, anti-buman space — yet humans populate & use it anyway…
