Back in the Saddle

For the first time in what feels like months – and probably is – I rode my bike five miles to work and five miles back. I’d been starting to feel like a lardy, cranky bastard, but working up a sweat on the bike (mostly on the way back home) makes me think I’m back on the right track.

Other news: I’m currently reading a book that’s a collection of pages in a box. You assemble them in whatever order you want, except for the very first and the very last. It feels like inhabiting a very disorderly memory, which is likely the point. It’s called The Unfortunates and it was written by B. S. Johnson, no relation to London’s current head buffoon mayor.

    I’ve been having a crack at riding in once a week. It’s not much faster than walking, since there’s a lot of hills in between home and work and I am still very definitely a lardy bastard.

    Spent a really interesting afternoon yesterday at the Darvell community in Robertsbridge. They’re related to the Amish, but a lot more open to change. We have a couple of their kids doing International Baccalaureate with us, and will have 14 more starting in september.

    Good luck with your film
