Over-reaching teenage melancholia REDUX (2011 vintage - early sun promised much, although cruel June, July and August took on April for TS Eliot's prize and stamped out all hope of a decent harvest. T.LS and BBW are long since dead in the bottle. ???? is laid down in the cellar, the label dusting over with neglect). So:


Fruit hangs useless on blackening vines. Wasted, pillaged earth mocks the doomed seed. The high green tideline clings to a spent foreshore, not receding but evaporating.


Not summer still, nor autumn yet.


Not, in fact, paralysis but dessication, respiration, retreat. Until all that's left to reveal is the dust of your carelessly-formed memories, and the brittle snap, snap, snap of your heart.

      Major Incident?

      By Angelina · Posted

      could be related to the three arrests yesterday.   Without knowing, it is just speculation   "All three men were arrested on suspicion of assisting a foreign intelligence service, contrary to section 3 of the National Security Act (NSA), 2023 and they were taken to a police station in London."

      My apologies. The timing of your original post suggested it was after 6pm, which would fit with them herding away supporters onto the train at London Bridge and trying to get to Selhurst station to escort them to the ground.

      They wouldn't have needed to go through Underhill on sirens and lights at four in the afternoon for a seven forty five kick-off in a 5 van convoy. With a sixth van following about 5 minutes later again on siren and lights.
