Notes waiting to be claimed...

Thurs 5th NOV

You were driving a white ute and you smiled at me as you left the Goodna Cecil Hotel. I was driving a white sedan - I had just turned right at the lights. Your smile made my evening! Thanks :)

Redhead in glasses - probably singing her heart out as she was driving her car to trivia night

Fri 6th NOV

You were in the lift with me at Ipswich Central. I couldn't remember what floor I had parked on. You had a cute smile, and I hope you have a lovely weekend.

Frantically trying to collect my books - nerdy lady
