With no particular reason to be out early either ahead of doing something else or to beat hot weather, I was out a bit later than usual today. Loosened up OK after the first kilometre, but was feeling a bit sluggish for most of the run nevertheless - perhaps at its best down by the river (although I didn't get onto the more slippery bits). Felt rather autumnal.
Did my first bit of 2016 election campaigning this afternoon, finding a couple of new patches for distributing material into (the Hells Angels clubhouse was across the road so I didn't get the chance to find out whether anyone is enrolled to vote at that address). Somewhat ironically, the address I had the most trouble finding was an orienteering one. The one pile of letters I haven't yet dealt with - might leave those ones for the post - are the couple of dozen for those enrolled at 101 Yarra Bend Road, aka the Thomas Embling Hospital (which last attracted attention in a political context when one of its inmates - who has since gone on to
bigger and badder things - punched Tony Abbott when he visited the facility as Health Minister).
