ECHO 17/1/06

Random day list:
- a toy Dalek collecting dust;
- Mother and daughter off to sign on;
- a failed attempt to drive long distance, addled electrics in the car;
- two hours silence;
- a Fieldfare sits in the apple tree and waits;
- memories of an ice-rink and among the people moving slowly round, some slipping over on a regular basis, a child starts to cry then gains confidence and moves on the skates slowly but surely;
- nobody on the other end of the phone at three different numbers I call at mid-day
