Do not disrespect Lucy!

'...and we have a puncture, Mum', Robe said...
'What!'
'When did you see it!?'
'Which wheel!? '
'Woi, and you are telling me now...?' I groaned as we ate our ice-cream. 
It was late but Aunty Koki had loudly suggested ice-cream in the hearing of several sweet-toothed people so we had to.

Of handcuffs and the slow arm of the law...

I slid down the column and sat on my heels. The seat that I had taken two steps towards was quickly occupied by the man. He did not even bother to take look in my direction, but then competition for the seats was high...There were six seats for the close to 30 or so people standing around in the corridor or jostling at the door held slightly open by the court bailiff.
I had walked in circles to find this court number 9. I found 7 and 8, then turned a corner and came to a dead end.

It's too late now...

Buy me those flowers…while I can stil bury my nose in their petals, and smile in the mist of their sweet scent.

Give me that hug, real and present…while I can yet wrap my arms around you and be with you in that moment.

Kiss me, while I can still lift my head, and close my eyes, and smile at the gentleness of your touch.

Bring me that scent, that you’d like me to wear…while I can still spray it in the air, and walk through the shower of misty droplets and feel as they fall lightly on me...and think of you…

Be with me…now.

Don’t wait till it’s too late.

I Promised I'd Sing This Song...

So I ran to the office and asked Julius to Google and find me a recording studio, 'I must sing today!' I said… and he did! And we called and I wanted to go right away but their programmer was not in...Drat!
So we booked for the next day, '...be here by 10am!' she said. I was there at 10am and the programmer was still in....Pipeline!!!!

...My Hot Blue, Reasonably High, Patent Leather Heels

Having walked all the way from Upperhill, all I wanted to do was kick of my heels and take a large much of HLG, my throat had been acting up all day and the undecided weather did not help...nor did the dust along the way.
