Digital dungarees and the perfect fish.

Wary of wearing it wrong, we fitted the hook, line and sinker.

Conversation, or silence, is more important than the catch.

Until you land a ten-pounder.

Transitory.

A word of the moment.

What We’d like to know is what is transitory and what is here to stay.

It’s a song and a dance, a show, perhaps a lie.

Plenty of that about in the year 2021, when this was written.

The world is on the cusp of turning so many wonderful and life-changing-for-the-better discoveries and inventions into a regularly available norm.

The humanity of people and the human psyche appears not to have advanced so much.

Time to add fuel to the latter and let it soar, let it cruise forwards toward what is really possible.

Strange how good news, valuable and great results, take a while to inspire and fire-up enthusiasm.

Things that we’d expect to happen don’t.

Surprise is perhaps the best tool, yet often seems beyond control. Can you turn it on when needed?

Who pulls the strings?

No-one at all, unless…unless you let them!

A surprise.

They had booked me in for a Lotus Fragrant Dynamic Massage but I was given an update to version 8.7.5.2

Seems you can’t get away from it – or without it!

Instead I decided to drink soup, tell jokes and teach novices.

It all worked out well because I was invited back to stay for up to two weeks in the Emperor suite, all treatments and meals included. They even offered to pay for my flight in a private jet.

Sometimes a laser-focus on the weirdness of today, produces the goodness of tomorrow.

Nothing but the best.

The grass is getting louder.

The water is getting longer.

The powder has a smooth and glossy surface.

Cars heal.

Bicycles cause distress on quiet lonely tracks, the birds know.

Carrots cause excessive consumption of meat.

The dial turns.
