Spotted in the north-west

North West City News likes to keep an eye out for the weird, wonderful and shocking across North and West Melbourne, Kensington and Parkville Gardens.

Here’s a collection of photos from June, July and August which fit the brief.

In this edition, we spotted a mysterious woollen worm bringing a message of hope to an unsuspecting local during these trying times.

Also pictured is a puzzling “push-me-pull-you” van in Kensington. One local on the Kensington Good Karma Network Facebook group theorised that it could have been imported, assembled that way to save costs, then reassembled here into two vehicles. Puzzling indeed.

Finally, a spot of bad luck for a truck driver in Wellington St, Kensington after crashing into a tree just up the street from a “no trucks” sign. Got a tip? Email [email protected] •
