so i was walking towards the school i teach in on monday mornings, short of cash and hungry, knowing it would be a few hours before i could get to a cashpoint and purchase some nourishment... it was just after 9 am, moments to go before i had to be there... all the students should have been in their class answering the register...
i turn the corner and there is a crowd of kids outside, just like the image which i see at the end of the school day... but this is 9 am?
i see one of my students and ask him... the heatings broken, school is cancelled for the day...
i remember what this felt like as a child, and i feel pretty damn good as an adult, knowing i don't have to work this morning... a gift...
so i pop in to my college, pick up some essays i have to mark, then i walk to the tate modern and spend awhile there writing lyrics... i almost have harbour walls done now, just the end of the second verse eluding me...
and when i get home there is our brand new, sparkling kettle awaiting me, not that i've really minded the last few days of boiling water in pans, but i looove this new kettle...
hmmmmm..
& lastly, just because i'm thinking of tides in relation to the tune i've put up a link to the tide at london bridge, which i'm actually really pleased about because there is a place i'd love to explore down on the waters edge that you can only get to at low tide... resources for future adventures...
