Yvonne just pointed out that some may not realise "Pokies" are poker machines/ slot machines & whatever else those things that take your money & give you a blinding headache & empty pockets in return, are. We Australians are known for shortcuts on names, etc : Tatts is for Tattersalls the Lottery folks.
Outside of Flinders St Station as we drove past.
I used PS on this one as the lady was quite washed out ( see her hair )
the dodge tool added some colour to her suit & his shirt

I love poker machines. I try to play them at least once every couple of years, and do my part to keep Las Vegas in lights.
