Despite it being a bank holiday I woke up at 5:30am this morning but it was still dark. I was going to make a cup of tea but decided to wait and put the radio on to listen to the news and the farming programme. Before getting back into bed, I looked out of the window because I could hear voices.
I saw what I can only describe as two 'new age' travellers with back packs and a scruffy looking dog trotting along beside them. They seemed to be in a hurry because they were striding out as they went up the road. When I see people at that time of the morning, I often wonder where they've been and where they are going. Normally anyone going past at that time of the morning is on the way to work but I didn't think these two were. Anyway I got back into bed and dozed on and off.
Eventually, I got up about 6:30am and came down to make a cup of tea. As usual. I opened the curtains at the back then went out to put some seed on the bird table for the sparrows' breakfast and change the water in the bird bath. I noticed two strawberry plants a friend had given me looked a bit limp so I watered them too. Then I came through to the front room to open the blinds enough for me to see out but no-one can see in and that's when I saw a little old man pushing a bicycle with four large cane chairs tied on. They towered above him and that made me wonder where he was going too.
It's at times like this that my imagination runs riot and I come up with half a dozen scenarios, every one of them should be in a crime novel! Perhaps I should start writing.
