Downright disturbing turn of the twentieth century building façade espied on an Auckland walkabout this week.

Or thinking of, to be more precise?

Which might explain my take on it: few things are more frightening to me that being trapped in a crowded gym amongst heaving, sweating, exercising, bodies.
Give me a walk in the fresh air, anytime. I think I need some…
