Disruption isn’t new. Disruption isn’t always about Silicon Valley. Disruption isn’t ’American’. Imagine the disruption to people’s lives in the tiny hamlet of Akaroa when this was installed in 1901.

You might not think of wine as fabric, but with the right wine in the right hands, it can be just that … if not the very foundation of ‘good society’. Clearly the French agree. You just have to read the label.

Our first promotion of Stop Child Traffic was as intense as the intense chocolates that made up the floor prizes at the IIW. But nowhere near as intense as the next three years.

I approached today’s prompt with apprehension. ’Yonder’ for goodness sake. But I 🖇️ stuck to my guns, took a deep breath, opened photos and entered ‘yonder’ into the search. Just a single image came up.
Initially it made no sense. But look closely and all is revealed.
📸 This Ice Cream parlor sells wonderful ice cream and I am not even an Ice Cream person.
I am not alone in my thinking. This was the line on the street at around nine in the evening.
Thankfully when we got in line we were only 6 people back. The rest turned up while we were in the store!
📸 The Nixon Tardis and My First Indian Food In Three Years
I was very happy to be going out to eat my first Indian in over 3 years (long story). In fact I was so happy that I took pictures. I took a few actually - but sharing this one in particular because of the Tardis and Dalek.
My First Indian In Three Years - Right Beside The Tardis
It seemed odd at the time, but I didn’t investigate it until just now - turns out it is famous!
Who knew?

They say that sometimes you can’t see the forest for the tree .. I know what they mean.
