The longest night of the year is over with, dawn light, and listen to the apparatus beside the bed react to every
breath taken.
The longest night ends in a dim grey daybreak two
days before christmas eve, with the coldest months of the
year still ahead. But at least they will be brighter.
The son is up, gathering his items for school, with only one sock on and no shoes. shortly afterwards, now wearing both shoes, and socks as well, he is having his breakfast at the living room table. Making the coffee, and clearing the worktop in the kitchen at the same time, removing all the sticky cutlery over to the sink, replacing spices and salt in their shelf, giving the surface a wipe. Finally have the coffee ground, the machine filled and put on the gas. In the bathroom, there are strange noises coming out of the drains, the workmen are clearing the towns sewers again using pressure or something. A gurgling noise, then a pulsating throb.
The son complains that they have only had two days. to learn four songs for the ecumenical end of year church service He lovwa the choir, but it involves duties as well as pleasures. Four songs for Christmas and now it is half past eight, a third cup of brew is being thought of, there are things to betaken to the post office, there are a great many things to be thought of. The first thing is, as every day now, to get these notes completed, this daily exercise in handwriting, OCR, and publication after correction and revision.
