Goodnight friends! Grimly enveloping grey day, the sense of an intruding haze and a slight suffocating clamminess, having to peer to see things with any clarity even though no exact mist seemed to be present. Hours on motorways, the beady twinkle from seas of jerking and pouncing red rear lights, the hypnotic yet urgent fascination of the spaghetti junction, a massive concretion of interweaving overpasses, a manufactured landscape formed by endless recurving colonades of pillars, completely divorced from human scale.
Weary and aching, but at an even, endurable ticking over level – very glad of yesterday’s half-workout given the squeezing heaviness of the day and the errands.
May we find gentleness and understanding for each other and ourselves today!
