W've been away all day, first going from stall to stall at the Moruya Markets, then visiting the last remaining bookshop in Moruya, before having a very satisfying lunch of roast pork at the Moruya Bowling Club.
The markets are slowly changing from a fresh-food farmer's market which also offers much home-made craft to a tourist trap selling cheap stuff made in China at highly inflated prices. Anyway, just watching the passing parade of people with multi-coloured hair and in various stages of undress revealing their many tattoos makes every visit memorable.
The bookshop, as much as I would like to support it, sells its books at sometimes twice the regular price (for example, Padma bought me Billy Connolly's "Rambling Man" for $24 at K-Mart; the bookshop sells it for $50; a Richard Glover book I recently bought at Big W for $22 costs $35).
The Moruya Bowling Club still offers its amazing lunch special of the roast of the day for an incredible $11 which left me with enough money to buy "QUIET - The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking" by Susan Cain and Tim Harford's "The Undercover Economist" and a collection of "The Best of the Spectator Australia 2014-2017".
When I got home, an email was asking me to claim a refund from TELSTRA. It was quite cleverly done, except that when I put the mouse's pointer over the sender's "TelstraAustralia-TelecomService", it revealed itself as having come from "soniawww@alice.it". Not so clever after all!
