Dropping

The last of a few days off work so I went out on the bike for the morning - all good, although the driving hail shower on the A72 that hurt my face so much I had to take shelter....I could have done without that.

And your mind wanders when you ride. Today I was going over the events that first led me to hear a certain track. One Wednesday night in my first year at Sheffield University I'd gone down to the Poly (the Nelson Mandela Building - of course it was!) to see Ted Chippington and John Otway. A few tunes were played before proceedings got underway and one of them was so jaw-dropping in its brilliance that I was immediately smitten beyond belief.
