A recent online conversation with a friend of mine in the UK…
Friend: [Son] keeps pestering me to see whether you’ve been to various liminal spaces in Australia. I tell him Australia is very big so it’s unlikely.
Me: I would be intrigued to know what liminal spaces might be available here. I didn’t know we had enough of them to count as ‘various’.
Friend: He was particularly interested in a car park in Melbourne!
Me: Well I have been to Melbourne a few times, so it’s theoretically possible that I’ve at least walked past the car park in question.
Me: Hang on, he’s not talking about the South Lawn Car Park at Melbourne University is he? Because if he is, then I have actually visited it!
Friend: Ah yes that is the one! He will be very excited!
Now what are the odds of that?
