tales from an ordinary world

2003-01-20

Arriving early I scout around on the main road, remembering the places I'd been around here on other days, long ago, when I was just visiting - a couple of restaurants and a pub that hosts bands I'd occasionally see. Now I'm trying to visualise living near here, using these shops, walking down this street in every mood I'll ever feel. I've never lived on this side of town before, so I'm energized (even on such a hot day) by the thrill of discovery and the terror of the unknown.

There's still time so I stop for a pint, listen to the music and watch a guy walk in with his magazine.

On the way to the house, I see some graffiti which says "more TVs on TV".
