There I am on a mooring not 50m from the entrance of the Council estate & out comes the Merry Fisher "Sunshine Sally". Hidden in the shadows of the greenhouse is a familiar figure dimly visible thro the shaded glass. I stand in the cockpit & wave.
And the Major drives blindly by, not noticing the visiting raggie or bothering to read my foot high dodger lettering - perhaps it's worse than I thought, maybe he can't even read foot high letters a 50m? Or is it a consequence of being tucked up inside a glasshouse & out of contact with the real world?
Not to worry, I decided, I shall eat my dinner & catch him on the way back. No chance: the stuck up occifer went straight past me again, despite my waving wildly in the cockpit. Not much chance of getting a free drink if you won't even say hello to the other ranks, yer know.
Tom was another one ploughed imperiously past on his stately way South with a few crew on board & completely missed seeing me. Is it something I said, are you all afraid of the lurgy I am just recovering from. Or are you just so sure that nothing ever moves arounf PD so you don't check out what's around you?
