WALKING TO WORK
I thought today I should walk to work instead of drive. Twenty-four hours of drizzle and rain had subsided, the afternoon was as yet young, and all I’d seen so far this morning was the bottom of a porridge bowl, two cups of tea, words and information on a computer screen.
It’s cold and damp and grey, yet still quite beautiful in an early-February, work-in-progress kind of way.
The stroll along St James Street with my barrow wasn’t quite as I’d anticipated. Precautionary plastic trousers kept riding down my backside and rubbed together noisily with every step. Still, now I’m here and ready to do a stint it’s good to stop and hear yourself think.
