I am the morning, you are the light You make the morning such a beautiful thing I am the green grass, you are the rain Fall on me, make me grow -

there has been a lot of walking during this break - especially out in the Estuary around Orford and Aldeburgh.  But I've also 'discovered' the abandoned railway line between Leiston and Aldeburgh thanks to a renewed  interest in the area as a result of the development of another nuclear power station. some great little walks around the area... http://www.mapmywalk.com/gb/aldeburgh-eng/
watching Richard Linklater's trilogy before sunrise, before sunset, and before midnight in one sitting is an 'emotional rollercoaster' http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0112471/ , http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0381681/?ref_=nv_sr_2 and http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2209418/?ref_=nv_sr_2 not catching the films as they came out I had missed their individual release's -but this experience was so moving - I was really glad to see them in one go - the references within each of the episodes were a beautiful light touch and the characters journey feels like it must in some way connect to the actors and of course it acts as a mirror to one's own. There has to be more - what happens when their children leave home?
a slice of Jack Reacher takes you to a place that is so familiar that the title Never go back seems a little ironic http://www.imdb.com/title/tt3393786/ if you like the obvious broadcast 20 minutes before it happens this one is for you...
