As the rainstorms continue to spin in from the South West and as the Boltek lightning detector fired up this morning I decided to ascend into the loft to retrieve old memorabilia and to grab some books, old dusty friends, to read during this current extra-tropical low. While groping around I came across an old lava lamp next to my box of ancient cat scratched LP's (memories of an ex-girlfriend and another time, long past). She was a hippy, some twelve years older than me, and the lava lamp was hers and I am now apt to think back to what seems, in my current myopic hindsight, here in the current gloom, to have been a more optimistic time...
Where have the silly children, the optimists, the beautiful love bright, big breasted women with flowers gone?
I am going to don a kaftan, forget Brexits and yellow pumpkin Trump heads and all the other clowns, and having cleaned off the vinyl, to fly Trans-Love Airways again...
I may be some time...
