Sitting by the dock on the bay...

It's fairly early and most people are still having breakfast. I've already been to Boots, checked there's sushi (yep), bought plasters (seems my horse mullered toe has been burrowing into the next one) and picked up cold sore cream (yep, falling apart at the seams as always).

I decided to sit in a small garden overlooking Herm when a lady in a dark blue denim dress came and sat down not far from me. She reminded me of me in my 30s in so many ways; she wore patent high heel shoes, a midi length dress, carried a leather cartridge style handbag and sat down to watch the world and have a cigarette. Apart from the phone in her hand it seemed so familiar.
