Tornado Alley (PROG)

Wound healing well. Stopping in the pub up the road on the way home i ran into two Irish and English friends i'd met a couple of times before. They are sparkies working on the upgrade of Sydenham station .. https://www.sydneymetro.info/article/major-sydenham-upgrade-sydney-metro .. where the new Metro will end. The Metro comes above ground shortly before Sydenham station at the end of a 10km tunnel which runs from the other side of Sydney Harbor ..

under Sydney to Sydenham. In the image right is north and Sydney's northern suburbs, Sydenham is inner-west to the left.

The two young guys, generous souls, insisted on plying me with Guinness and a few schooners later a young lady at the next table dropped one of her electronic cards onto the ground. Thinking she may not have seen it drop i got off my stool, got a shoe hooked in it's leg and fell ingloriously to the ground. Short version, as concern was expressed while i was helped to my feet "I fell for Nicolle."

Thankfully the bouncers understood it was simply a well motivated accident and we resumed our chat and drinks as before.
