Early-doors, on the road by six, miss the traffic, sunrise, already feeling sick. Morris Minor, Formica and fags, boot at the back, stuffed full of bags. Summer holidays before flights were cheap, head for the coast for shutdown week. Heading down the Canterbury way, a caravan, a fairground, a week away. Narrow lanes, hedge-lined, roads worn away.

Hissing, crashing, wave on wave, watch the tide, a secret cave. A cell of sorts, the girl next door, burned by the sun, but wanting more. Week flies by and back in the car, radio signals from way off far. The last lingering tangible thing, that follows us home as we sit and sing.
