When I was out riding my bike yesterday I came across this sight:
Not that I believe the old myth that says a pair of shoes flung over powerlines indicates the residence of drug dealers but there sure are a lot of shoes up there. Should someone call the Feds?
What’s the address?
I reckon it does mean dealers, actually. I live on Victoria Street and it certainly seems to mark out particular locations there. I don’t supposed the image above is from around Richmond / Cremorne, where a dude was busted the other week in car containing some obscene quantity of drugs and ‘associated items’? Because it sounded like that load of drugs would’ve needed quite a lot of shoes to signify.
No this photo isn’t from that area of town. But I can say that there is little doubt that Andrew McDonald the Shoemaker would be distressed by this scene.
