The Claw is My Master

Wednesday. Another beautiful sunny day, and getting warmer too. Work took me to our Blean office this morning, very calm and quiet up there. Rather by chance, my afternoon tasks were incredibly light, and I was able to complete all those jobs by lunchtime. My reward was an early finish… the car was hot when opened the door and windows were rolled straight down for the drive home. I stopped along a nameless lane near Patrixbourne when I saw these odd crooked branches jutting out from the hedge, casting deep shadows across the road.
