  struggle to find the clock, and by the time that it is found it's frequency has increased, a rapid series of beeps-

        go into the shower, warm water wakens. The cat comes in, expecting food and attention. Not in the bathroom? and back in the bedroom, check the clothes, get them on, the mobile 'phone, ah is there.

        and feed the little eat, purrs and grunts of enjoyyment as it eats. The street is empty, the lane is bare. A lane, an alley, what is the difference? A path between houses. Cross the main street, flashing lights in the distance, street cleaners are at work. 

A solemm man, may be seventy, approaches,. He is wearing a black coat, and is carrying a large black book pressed to his chest. About the size of a folio. And his hair is grey and sparse. He has a serious immobile expression, a measured gait, downcast eyes.

A priest.

        He passes, not the lightest charge in gait or expression.

        The young woman, dressed all in black today, lights her cigarette as she passes the arch of the town gate.

Yuma's cafe is awful today. Big Blondy makes fuss. holds a constant shouted conversation with her favoured guests, does not get on with her job. Perhaps she is in the-wrong line of work.

Joking with Moustache, he shouts back, BB screams with laughter. Hedgehog seems to roll up,

in his bight blue overall. He seems uncomfortable. He is not the noisy kind.

- Train platform number six is crowded today, the train is three minutes late.

Wait till the crushing rabble has had its way, let them be happy in their discomfort and greedy hurry.

Step onboard as the last person, their are still spaces free. Choose one opposite a young woman wearing a beige headscarf and a black anorak..

She pulls a disgusted face, later her husband comes along, even more disgusted in his demeanor, demanding a seat in fake humility.

Humility does not seem to be his long suit really, it is just that he is alone, without his friends.
