I stay at 191 Wilson Garden, right near the 10 Cross Bus Stand. It’s a very easy place to find because the buses are always stopping nearby. I’ve been at this location for quite some time now. My day starts early, usually before the first bus even pulls up. The house or the shop, it’s all kind of one thing to me. I spend my hours looking after the daily tasks. It’s a lively area, Wilson Garden is always full of life. You can hear the conductors shouting and the engines idling. I don’t have a big team or anything, it’s just me and maybe one other person helping out when things get busy. I do things the old-fashioned way mostly. Paper and pen are still my best friends. People stop by on their way to the bus or after they get off work. It’s a lot of small talk and making sure everyone is taken care of. Sometimes the rain makes it hard for people to visit, so those days are a bit lonely. But mostly, there’s always someone around. I keep the place tidy, though it’s not perfectly decorated. It’s a practical space for practical work. I like being near the bus stand because you get to see all sorts of people passing through. It makes the day go by faster. I just keep doing what I know how to do best without too much fuss.
