I braved it to the city today and back with a mask on the whole time. The most weird thing has had to happen at the end. Tram driver swapped over at Barkers Rd and the new driver was saying things to himself while setting up, like "adjusting my seat" and "reaching out for the mirror" and I thought it was some cool.OH&S thing like the train drivers pointing and naming things in Japan.
Then he started mumbling to himself... "they said it was going to rain but it didn't..." "look at how bright those lights are"... and he had this really sullen, angsty young look about him... and before I could hear what else he had to say I had to get off.
Where is the rain though, it's been blowing plenty but not very wet. Not that I'm complaining
