This Ole House

>Hello,    it's been a while I know. I had to shift some boxes, it all takes time. I am currently in good favour staying somewhere near Lymn in a house apparently owned by a relative of the Earl of Wessex. I have no one or indeed, no need, to share this information, other than it seems that I should mention it.

I have been here for nearly two weeks now and have nothing to do but write music on the guitar and words on the laptop. If it all seems a little absurd, then that is because it is.

I had a notion that I would meet God and Oscar Wilde and they would speak to me with tales of great wisdom and insight. All I've seen is a couple of rabbits (nice ones) a family of sheep and a gang of cows. I began to grow bored by the solitude after a couple of days. There are no pubs close by and I haven't seen a smile for ages. I started to make characters out of the (sparse) furniture that I had. The hat stand became a rather arrogant fellow named Moorcroft, while it didn't take a genius to work out that the grandfather clock (Harold) secretly despised me for being there. The coffee table sings to me in the morning, she's very friendly, but on the whole her friendship alone has not been enough to sustain a happy time here. The songs are the best part really and I needed to do it to save myself from peeling my own skin. So I have two more days before I head off home and lose myself in the sanity of others at peace wriggling my pathetic form in to other peoples lives. See you soon then, Steve x
