In the last month I have been disgusted to see numerous dog droppings, especially on the eastern side. These are obviously the droppings of large dogs. What sort of people allow their dogs to foul the paths and berms without picking it all up after them? I always collect my own dog's 'doings' and it's not difficult so why can't others do the same? I don't carry enough bags to collect all the droppings that are left for people to walk on. It certainly spoils our lovely neighborhood.

Twice in the past month, I have been overwhelmed by the kindness of strangers in our community
The first occasion was in my local supermarket late one very hot afternoon. I was extremely tired and just wanted to get the shopping over abd done with, so I could get home and put my feet up
At the checkout, my cash flow card declined. I then realised I had the dates mixed up and the money was due into my account the following day .
Tiredly, I explained to the checkout operator that because I had left ny phone at home, I would need to shoot home and move a little money into that account, then return for my small bundle of groceries.
As I walked away, she called out "It's OK, it's sorted" .
A complete stranger had used his card to pay my account He even asked me if I had bought everything that I needed at that time. I was so overcome and grateful It was not a lot of money by some standards but his kindness and caring concern for my welfare was humbling.
This afternoon, in a city supermarket, I had overpurchased for the amount of money in my account at that time - tiredness again was a factor and a health issue, causing pain in my feet and ankles.
I managed to pull out quite a few of the dearer items and had almost reduced the bill down very close to what was required.
At this point, a lady gave the checkout operator a $20 note to settle the bill "Oh no", I protested " I will just take a few more items out"
She would not hear of it. Once again, I was thunderstruck by kindness from a stranger.
I am an ex JAFA. Whatever is in the water here, it is beautiful.
