#Spotted While Roaming in Aotearoa New Zealand: A man (30s?) in full cowboy getup is sitting on the tailgate of his ute* in a city-centre carpark. A thermos and lunchbox by his hip. Strumming a guitar and singing in a soft baritone while consulting a small notebook at his side. A border collie asleep behind him. A portly man (70s?) is strolling along. Hands clasped behind his back. Tummy leading the way. Stopping to admire a plant here, a flower there. Expression content. Meanwhile his portly dog (terrier cross gravy boat?) is toddling by his side. Snuffling and huffling at the cars driving by. A tiny human (2?) is holding Mum's hand, pulling her past a roadworks site from digger to digger. Regarding their mechanical dinosaur frames with rapt admiration. Roaring back in Mechanical Dinosaur Language when they make noise. In his element. A bohemian couple (80s?) with flowing silver hair, in seventies corduroy chic, are nestled side-by-side in a cafe booth. Snuggling up as they drink their hot chocolates. Heads bowed together as they giggle at something secret. A lumberjack of a man (60s?) orders a coffee and a Portuguese tart and takes a seat at an outside table where his basset hound is gnawing a big tasty bone. Both enjoying their treats with an air of happy gusto. (Continued Below)
