Joyous Jenny
1) The beautiful changing seasons, its autumn at the
mo and all the moistness and colours and the shiny wet
pavements and the crispy air, makes you feel so alive.
2) The way its so small, so easy to get about from
place to place, cosy, and the way that the chances are
you make connections with people who have heard of
people you know etc etc (e.g. lianne marx!)
3)Brighton - the beautiful easy lifestyle, the amount
of fun per square metre, the way there are groovy
lovely hippies spilling off the pebble beach, the
windier than windy wintery nights walking along the
seafront, the fact that my wonderful sister and her
unborn baby live there, that there’s so so much to get
involved in.
4) The countryside, the way its so accesible, the
stillness and quiet, and hills and peaks around
sheffield.Also the way we’re so damn close to the rest
of europe with all its variation, feels good to know.
5) the general overall down to earth ness of people
(especially up north), once you get past the bit of
british reserve, the way people don’t just walk around
like they’ve got it all handled, the way there’s so
much genuineness.
Okay so maybe these are all things you could get
anywhere, but I really appreciate the fact that I’ve
got them here, especially the ease of travelling thing
- if there’s some kind of event or course or something
happening somewhere, no matter where in the old island
it is its so easy to hop on a train, and the chances
are you’ll know somehwere who lives there cos theres
not all that far for your companions to spread out to.
Bravo for england i say.
