Phrase of the day: Today I am all tick and no tock (great phrase, courtesy of Colin McQueen)
The angry staring man was on the train chewing gum today. Angrily. Hands on the single crease down his trouser legs. I’ll bet he not only owns an iron, but a travel iron. I really want to talk to him. I feel like his life is so far away from anything I know and vice versa, we could strike up an exceptional partnership. He’d tell me the murky secrets of working in an International bank, arranging coups and investing in stock things for corporate murderers and I’d explain how to get a broken mower started or how to prune a climbing rose.
I know what you’re thinking: he sounds evil, why do you want to talk to him? Well, because I never meet evil people. Everybody I know and work with is lovely, thoughtful and completely without any kind of power or money. And I have this fascination with worlds I can’t enter, with locked doors and hidden truths, however terrible those truths might be. Angry Staring Man has access to those locked doors, I’m sure of it.
Fabulous woman was there too, with lots of huge rings, a skull, a bull, an opal, they look like knuckledusters. I keep expecting the other passengers on the train to start dressing like her. I’m always on the look out for someone else wearing a new pair of fluffy boots or a tiara of spikes. Fabulous woman should be on the television.

Perhaps you could dress like the fabulous woman. Curiosity killed the cat by the angry man. who then turned his attention to the girl who fixed broken mowers. 🙀
Sounds like a bad ‘B’ movie.

My life is a B movie! I love the idea of trying to do my job with a fluffy coat and huge rings, I could even use the rings as tools to dig up weeds. Unfortunately I don’t have the presence of the fabulous woman, I’d look more ridiculous than fabulous 😦

The B movies were always the more interesting ones.
