So That's Why

[poliphilo]

 I was wondering why the neighbour had hung out his bunting. Was it for a birthday party, a wedding even?- and the obvious answer didn't even cross my mind- which is that it's Pride weekend. I went for my usual saunter by the sea and stopped on my way home to watch as the parade- with its anarchistic drummers and lovers of all ages- made its way down Royal Parade to the festival site in Princes Park.
