About your lost car keys…
“I picture your car keys in the driven Arctic snow, and maybe I feel I can let things go…”
All that’s left of the summer
“And that was all that’s left of the summer”
Another night on the town
“How many hours were we dancing for?”
The archives
“So just for today we’ll use find and replace, and Typex the past from the archives”
As summer draws in
“I’m all of a sudden consigned to the summer recycling bin”
Amelia
“BBC 24 tries all day to keep up with you”
Art and design
“While he stirs his coffee and mumbles, well she’s on some neuro-linguistic desire for control”
Batten down the hatches
“We walked through allotments, my hands in my sleeves, stepped over roof tiles and telegraph poles”
Center Parcs
“Spend the summer in Center Parcs”
Chamomile tea
“And the researchers didn’t care, and the counsellors won’t listen”
Cincinnati
“There’s no way Cincinnati can let me down”
The case for the defence
“I’ll be waiting in the witness box, with a cup of coffee and a strong defence, collated from the Sunday supplements”
Caught in the lens
“Francesca, can you lead by example when your hobbies are drinking White Lightning and eating ice cream?”
Dancing
“The hours fade into decades of spins and dips”
Dilated Pupils
“I came to town in the winter months, where the pace of life took me by surprise”
Falling by the side
“On the scenic route from the station, in the midst of conversation, you came out with something quite perceptive”
First off the blocks
“A clean pair of heels and you never looked back”
Hollyoaks
“How can I sit through an episode of Hollyoaks when I know it’s somehow incomplete without your running commentary?”
Let the city run away with us
“I’ll sidestep round the winter city just like George Best in a suit”
Lights out over Kilburn
“We scatter for the hostelry, where no-one’s talking, and no-one even dares to breathe”
Melodies for booksellers
“Amy stares across the sparse infinity of open plan, takes a sip of coffee and rests her fingers on the piano keys”
Ninety degrees
“And if Dolly was working nine to five she’d be burned out in the printroom, sticking staples in her eyes”
Obstacles
“Lemmings don’t dive off the side off a cliff if they’re given a choice”
Recollections
“Recollections of the boys they kissed and the girls they let slip”
Seaview Hotel
“Conversations travel at speeds you can’t match”
Sidewalk cafe
“What this town really needs is a new sidewalk cafe”
Signposts
“Kissing with eyes on your watch now, sleeping with eyes that dart restlessly round”
Sixty seconds to fall in love
“Just give me one quick minute to fall in love , I’ll give you sixty seconds to hide”
Sleepwalking
“Am I supposed to be the one to tell you you’re sleepwalking?”
Stay Cool At Christmas
“You can’t stay cool and pretend you’re not feeling it!”
Sunset on Parliament Hill
“You’d stay forever young with a suitcase home and a student loan souvenir”
Tabletops
“As the winter falls, just whisk me away”
Take to the streets
“You take the high streets and I’ll take the old bingo halls”
Two thousand plus five
“My mind races through thoughts of chip and pin and Jerry Springer the Musical.”
Upstairs in the piano bar
“While I’m home dusting record covers, you’re out playing 60s classics”
Weekenders
“Where curfews and licenses fall by the side and where dancing and romance are safe from the borough”
Winding down for Christmas
“The church bells for midnight bring the curtain down upon another year”
