Dominic Raab

It comes a day after scientific advisers to the government warned of the risk of lifting the lockdown in England too soon

b movie - more So where to start?

So where to start? A shuffle along the high street in the crisp morning air might promote thought, speed up the neurons ...reconsidering the “clue”an old and clearly well travelled envelope judging by the post mark and stamp trail...were they stamp collectors? No, nothing as mundane, these two clients were no dullards...but then again rare stamps? A subject he knew little about...philately, perhaps an antique letter? Have to think outside the box on this one…

But first back home shower, maybe the gift of a power nap..see if anything in date in the fridge, although that was doubtfull.

Later the same day, after another look at the envelope, and no further forward...he considered his book of contacts, anyone whom might have a clue, any clue, as to what this was about.

So give me a clue

The clue is in the challenge...the voice best described as dark brown, came from the more diminutive figure. Within the money you will find instructions, or rather, clues. Someone has our property and you will get it back for us. Understood? We are told you are the best, although you look like old news to me.

Tempted to enter into a slanging exchange only stopped when he was reminded of the profit he was holding…

Ok ...Im on it, we will be in touch...good day.

With that the two about turned and clumped out of the office and into the rapidly arriving day…..

Amongs the crushed currency in his hand he found a buff coloured envelope, dog eared, decorated with smudged postmarks and many stamps from, it seemed, another epoch...nothing else...so this was the clue? The instruction?

To be continued.. .

Game On - b movie pt 5

The couple whom awaited in the clutter of what passed for an office were very visual, but reticent. Evidently communicating by body adornments...tatoos, piercings and crazy hair, goths from another fashion era...from another time… and of indeterminate sex….difficult to tell who was female and male...if indeed these were the components of this combination

As usual, the boss responsible for this cash in hand agency, was nowhere to be seen he simply arranged meets and delivered clients..the rest was up to the mutually interested parties.

So Mr uh? How can I help today...missing person, an imprudent moment which has incurred avoidable embarrasment? Do tell…Sorry, my name is, well that does not matter, nor do I require yours, but 50% of the fee up front I do require..

Still without having said a word one of the duo thrust a wad of flaccid notes into his hand…

Game on.

B MOVIE pt 4

The phone was heralding another task to perform, guarentee of grief, unwanted right now. Another collection to be collected, but another cash job, cash is king...well, or in line to the throne, at least.

HELLO?

Are you home yet? Shots of conversation fired…….hitting and missing…..a grazing ricochet of commands….

ONLY JUST, WHY?

No good morning how are you? this caller did not like waiting, nor exchanging pleasantries, just usual scant instructions, in reality, orders, of course no clue as to the task awaiting, but then, this was part of the interest, as much of an incentive as the cash to be collected.

Get up to the office, quick as you like, be a bit presentable, you have some people waiting, cash people.

to be continued...just dont know when

Monday - Lunes

Quite happy to be blogging again, a little less FACEBOOK perhaps a little better understanding of this racing technology , a race which could well leave me behind, perhaps it has already.

I am trying to take something positive from this internet education, every day, so my efforts as a blogger will at least entertain you ...as well as educate me...

So.people...I bid you a happy Monday...more to follow...Regards Innes

.Muy contento de estar blogueando de nuevo, un poco menos de FACEBOOK quizás un poco mejor comprensión de esta tecnología de carreras, una carrera que bien podría dejarme atrás, tal vez ya lo haya hecho.

Estoy tratando de sacar algo positivo de esta educación en Internet, todos los días, por lo que mis esfuerzos como blogger al menos te entretendrán ... además de educarme ...

Entonces, gente ... Les deseo un feliz lunes ... más, mas tarde...

Saludos Innnes.

 

B MOVIE Part 3

B MOVIE Part 3

At last, reaching his ancient appartment block, and negotiating the climb to a top floor which offered an eternal odour of missed opportunities.

Fumbling for keys in the half light, proved a waste of energy as the door appeared open, in fact forced open. Or had he simply forgot to pull it closed as he left the night before?

On first inspection, nothing was amiss, however with such a state of disaster as was the norm, miscreants could easily have been and gone. Could take days to find if anything had been taken.

But there was little, of value to take, any robber may well feel compassion and perhaps leave something rather than steal…

amongst the debris a phone buzzed

the harm of reality

Consider the value of silence

with only sounds of the countryside

floating around your ears

a dog barks here

a cat mews there

cows and sheep contribute

a ducks quack is factored in

wolves whistle

thinking about value of near silence,

cotton wool consistency ,

protecting from the harm of reality.

There was no taxi to be found. only flashing blue lights of law enforcement decorating an otherwise grey dawn. Thus a long walk to the horizon awaited, getting back to his miserable appartment, don his alter ego and prepare for the waiting day.

Passing pidgeons, a curios fox and an early morning street cleaner considered the shamboling individual, but only for a moment, before collective interest evapourated like hot breath in the freezing air.

Coffee ...was a priority, and sleep, both out of reach, now and until he at least touched base, reported in, and collected.

Collect, thats what it had come to.

B MOVIE

The subtext of conversation hovered just above the smoke, adding to an aroma of perspiration, perfume and preoccupation, that gentle ache asking forgiveness.

It was late, or early dependant upon your personal time zone, time to make a move, if indeed there were any moves left.

Stepping out from the bar onto the dank pavement, the cold asked questions...the neons flashed their answers.

A street littered with detritus and tired temptation.

TO BE CONTINUED

Time

The time on my hands
can weigh heavy

opportunity to consider
errors

and victories

a continuum

MIXED THOUGHTS

A day of mixed thoughts...Wednesday 13 May and still the COVD 19 fills the news pages and TV channels. Of course such a pandemic is food and drink to the purveyors of especially bad news such as this, with the politicians looking for new escape routes, and how to introduce new untruths to their various electorates. 

For the most part we succumb to the propoganda, wringing our sanitized gloved hands in convenient despair.

This global catastrophy will go on for some time, and may never be completely eradicated.

Will we learn any lessons? I fear not. 

TOURIST CLASS
Having travelled the Americas

 visited realities not offered by any package deal

 politicians and their platitudes

 I hear you say
one more reason
 to step further away.

I don`t write code.

Its Friday and am struggling with BLOGGER. And to think I used this quite a lot albeit a few years ago now, I dont write code although clearly its time I learned. Not even sure what this will look like? . If I was sitting on my word processor with lots of editing tools I might have a clue but hey, its an old dog and new tricks.
