Temporada 13
Timely indisputable marriage of thought and deed
On the cusp of some new scene
We all have needs
Last few days
A novel air
Leprechauns and leviathans
Get lost
Restraint denied
Even a smile

This day has only just begun and here I am in the capital, entering this Roman shell in all its outgrown glory. I disembark at Victoria Station, trailing like a tramp my meagre goods and chattels, looking all about me, dazzled by the old newness of it all.
The saga continues, crossing oceans and lands, to end up in London. Travel, of course, opens the mind, ... and more sometimes. (Photo by Bleddyn Butcher. Song "Let yourself go" from the album Standard Ideal.)
