Run/Slip'n'Slide 10-02-11

Ashurst New Forest to Ashurst New Forest - in the dark of night, with horses.

From the Box in my mind

There was an internet cafe next to the cinema. Jon and I spent a lot of time there, although I hardly remember what I did.

Jon and I watched Episode I: The Phantom Menace at the cinema. When I was booking a taxi back to where we were staying the dispatcher wanted to know what it was like. My answer was "It was good, but it was no Star Wars".

We also watched the Mummy there. It was better.

A Symphony of Souls - 5. Countdown to Zero

A while ago I wrote a novel. It's not very good, but I'm still proud enough of it that every so often I mention it to people. Generally they then say they'd like to read it. So I thought I'd dig it out, give it a once over for spelling and then publish it for people to read it.

Chapter Five - Countdown to Zero is here

Listen well.

A Symphony of Souls - 4. The Angels are Falling

A while ago I wrote a novel. It's not very good, but I'm still proud enough of it that every so often I mention it to people. Generally they then say they'd like to read it. So I thought I'd dig it out, give it a once over for spelling and then publish it for people to read it.

Chapter Four - The Angels are Falling is here

Listen well.

From the Box in my mind

The next morning I received a knock on my motel door. I opened it to find a man holding a camera pointing at me, and a woman holding a microphone in my face. I immediately slammed the door. Five minutes later I put on Jon's denim jacket and walked into reception to talk to them. I convinced them to give me a lift to the hospital in exchange for an interview.

That was the first conscious memory I had of reciting the details of the accident.

It was the first time I consciously realised the memory of the accident was playing on repeat in my mind. In my head I referred to it as my personal in-flight movie.
