Sunday Morning – Anomalies
No flights. Is this down to East Midlands airport being closed with the snow, or do covert airborne forces also fall to their not being able to get off their drives? Or is it a Sunday thing? Call: response; a … Continue reading
Saturday Morning – Opposites
Late sleeping, I opened the pages of the notebook to make my reminders, and stared at the numbers at the top of a new spread and otherwise empty double pages the colour and size of bread. 132.850 134.425 For a … Continue reading

Friday Morning – Agnes
Slept right through til 6:10, the benefits of physio massage and paracetamol, and the heavy-as-forecast snow, perhaps, dulling the aircraft noise: although I should be clear that they don’t wake me, I just hear them. One came over, to make … Continue reading

Thursday Morning – Legacies

Tuesday Morning – Voices
3:25am and awake anyway (that’s what turning on to my right side does) I heard the helicopter – previously seen as either a Puma or Merlin – passing over east-west. I read that we’re on, or rather below, air corridors … Continue reading
Monday Morning – Noises
Started early with googling into increased air traffic over Derbyshire, and that made an hour disappear. Lots of people on the same and similar topic threads – conspiracy theories, preparation for war, foreign aircraft; and it’s a little of them … Continue reading

Muntins, by A Lady
March 7th, International Muntins Day, in a way. What are the chances of my unearthing this, a poem upon that subject, by the Edwardian character whose output I increasingly seem to stumble upon? Irregardless (as someone I knew used to … Continue reading
