How is it that you can drive the same route every day… yet not actually see what’s going on?
As any regular followers will know, I often comment on the quirky, nonsensical and useless things that catch my attention while driving to or from work… You know, the ‘odd’ numberplate, bad spelling on a street or shop sign, crazy pedestrian behaviour…. anything really.
So you can imagine my own surprise when today I noticed a brand new house en route … I have never seen it before, yet it’s clearly been under 
construction for many weeks if not months.
How does that happen?
Now I’m not talking about a new project home in a housing estate …. I’m talking about semi-rural living where generously proportioned homes take prime position on small or medium sized acreage. I know I’m driving to the conditions and attentive on the road; but it seems that somehow the busy and often odd thoughts going on in my brain must block out the more ‘routine’ sights along the way.
I can tell you about the cat laying in the window of a house I passed …. yet I can’t see a house …go figure!
