	Iain's journal
		Nearing the end of the ride, going up past the MCG (essentially from richmond station to jolimont station) and relaxing as I tootled up through the gardens.
		I wound up asking a random person who was leaving the station just after this had been announced if she was driving either into town or to a station, and if so could I have a lift please.
		She acceded to my request, hastening to add that she didn't normally give lifts to strangers (I realised later that my asking may have caused undue stress, and the request would have been a less stressing thing if directed towards a bloke).

		The Committee for Melbourne and National Trust should act to remove this greatest of all indignities and endeavour to free Melbourne of this crassness that has engulfed us - even at the expense of losing some of the commercial dollar.

	Formation And Origins Of Hawthorn F.C.
		When its ground at East Melbourne was required for the Jolimont Railway yards, it was homeless and, as it did not desire to move to the City of Essendon with its mentor, it merged with the Hawthorn Club.
		The VFL corrected the East Melbourne ground problem - which obviously hadn't occurred as Essendon continued there until 1921 - by not including it, but also continued the myth of Hawthorn moving to Glenferrie in 1903.
		The VFL had changed the passage (which had been poorly written in the first place) of Hawthorn merging with Waterloo F.C. who were now known as Boroondara to Hawthorn merging with Waterloo and now Hawthorn were called Boroondara, before evidently changing their name back again.
