      Hello Woo

      Those nice yellow roses by the railings - did you say they were 'Chinatown'? Lovely wafts of scent as you pass by! Nice pics - thanks for posting.

      Hey Woo, I remember sitting somewhere in those gardens having my lunch when I worked there back in the 80s.

      That was in December:)

        Yep, well I think it was tuna sandwiches:WINK1:

        But it was a long time ago, might have been corned beef.:scratch:

        But it was very quiet and peaceful.
