numbers & rain

it was the last day of term for my students today, and therefore it was a bit mad...

i was pretty vacant being as i'd had not that much sleep, nervously waking up on the hour from 4am onwards...

i started cycling back with D and within a few streets we'd stopped to put on our jackets, then a few streets later our waterproof trousers...

we parted company, as we always do, @ ladbroke grove and i found my way (as i always do) to the regents canal, by which time it had started to chuck it down some...

i was really enjoying the look of the raindrops hitting the water and i stopped after awhile and left my little camera running facing the water, under a bridge, so the raindrops ended in a line in the water...

i was listening to my shuffle and just waiting while my camera filmed, if the rain had let up a bit i would have set off but it just got worse & worse...

i turned the camera the other way and was delighted when a family of geese swam past, one of the gosling's swimming right by the camera...
oh, and numbers,

i was hoping that we might have a coincidence of numbers on saturday, which is the 7th of the 7th month 2007, and it might still happen that my counter over there on the right hits 6666 on 7/7/07 but looking less likely now that it's 58 tonight and there's all of tomorrow to go in between...

either way, whenever it comes i will be doing my customary thing with the 6666th visitor, assuming i can see where you're browsing from i'll post a picture of your town...
