Little People

From where I am sat in the library i can see two different building sites. Both have tiny people wondering about on top of six story buildings. They provide a nice source of amusement, watching them.

I wonder if they are watching each other, are they jelous of the other building? or proud of it? or do they not care? Do you think they are afraid to fall of, there is no safety rail and it's a long fall down. Maybe they are hungry, tired, drunk, bored, angry or pensive. I like that on one building they have put safety netting on the scaffolding in alternating colours, blue then yellow then blue then yellow horizontal stripes 10 ft wide. I wonder who did it like that, maybe it was an accident, maybe a builder thought it'd look pretty. I love the way the tower cranes move, huge and, well, towering. They seem to appear and never be put up. How do they build them? Magic i suspect.

In other news i got phone call from Nick today (the skipper of the boat that i going to brazil hopefully with me on it) it was the first time i have really chatted with him. We discussed Visas and Innocualtions and serious travelling round the world type stuff. It was jolly good and got me all proper excited again. Which means i have spent the last few hours reading about brazil's many diseases and piracy problem (no shit piracy = serious issue!), and the cape verde islands' visa issues. Its all rather fun. Any way as a result i am still 500 words short on my last ever essay! Last ever, awesome.

Rambling post, procrastination does that.
