Lidcombe, where I came across this outdoors martial arts lesson yesterday .. panorama .. is an "inner West" semi-industrial suburb about 15k from the City. It is mainly famous for being the nearest station to Rookwood cemetery, an enormous "suburb of the dead". The main business of this street -- on the way to the cemetery -- was monumental stone carving -- so it was a surprise to see these kids out in the sun in front of their centre practising their kicks. They were using soft drink bottles as kicking targets and the one you see flying through the air is about to collide with me.
