where I got to

travelodge encircled by roundabouts

motorway traffic rushing past

yet my key opens to view out back

daisy meadow

April sky behind the fence

departure from students digs less dramatic than expected with helpful driver assisting to load my belongings into storage. One hour’s bus ride later I end up with a taxi driver in rural North Notts who was actually fed up with waiting for customers – when I tell him I am heading for Bavaria for the rest of 5 mile trip tells me a story of how he meat long-term friends in various countries in Central Europe through Gaming (online). Really good friends they are now, he emphasises, now we are all getting older.
