    Default Her name is Gail...

    ...and you might remember her from last month's photo. I saw her yesterday and again this morning. This morning on the way to school I stopped her, introduced myself to her, gave her a few bucks for a coffee and asked if I saw her next time could I come and visit with her perhaps?
    She was surprised I stopped her and said her name was Gail and that would be fine. She seemed so small...in the photo it looks like the city is almost swallowing her.

    Thanks Z....there's something about her that seem to touch my heart for some reason...I saw her last week also when on my way to catch the bus. Each time I see her something twinges in me....I don't know why.

    well done Casil on both counts. When I buy a coffee there's always someone outside the shop. they are the same people but at different times (I guess that they take shifts). I always try to give them my change (or more) as I figure that if I can afford a coffee I can also provide funds towards a sandwich.
