While heading up to the first shop I came across a man standing in the middle of the road with a professional quality camera. When I looked further there was a woman standing outside the Post Office Cafe playing the flue and another camera man. When I came back past the flute player was crying. I did not know why.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/yewenyi\/4332833825\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3644\" title=\"fluteplayer\" src=\"http:\/\/yewenyi.net\/wpblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/02\/fluteplayer.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<!--more--><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">After dropping off the first of the pamphlets, I headed up to the <a href=\"http:\/\/yewenyi.net\/wpblog\/?s=%22marrickville+road+cafe%22\">Marrickville Road Cafe <\/a>for breakfast and then over to the Metro. On the way I found a bike with no wheels. The bike was locked. I wonder if someone stole the wheels or the owner took them. By the look of things\u00a0 would guess they were stolen.<a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/yewenyi\/4333663720\/in\/photostream\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3647\" title=\"bikenowheels\" src=\"http:\/\/yewenyi.net\/wpblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/02\/bikenowheels.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" \/><\/a>Then I passed John Fisher.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/yewenyi\/4332940067\/in\/photostream\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3649\" title=\"JohnFisher\" src=\"http:\/\/yewenyi.net\/wpblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/02\/JohnFisher.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"375\" height=\"500\" \/><\/a>Up in the Metro, having avoided falling over on the slippery bricks, I gave out the last of my pamphlets and headed back. I noticed that they had removed the bicycle parking at the Metro and replaced it with cafe seating. So I will write to the advocacy groups to get the parking put back, maybe not in quite the same place.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/yewenyi\/4333027119\/in\/photostream\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3651\" title=\"marrickvilemetroparkingracks\" src=\"http:\/\/yewenyi.net\/wpblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/02\/marrickvilemetroparkingracks.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/yewenyi\/4333027119\/in\/photostream\"><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/yewenyi\/4333769420\/in\/photostream\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3652\" title=\"marrickvillemetrocafe\" src=\"http:\/\/yewenyi.net\/wpblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/02\/marrickvillemetrocafe.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Then there was a poster I saw being put up on Friday.
