L-R: the maximum. the lord hamilton. stratford. Z. perou. colleen.
after catching my unburnt arm in a hedge trimmer (fortunately i was wearing a jacket and my arm got snagged rather than perforated) i had to sit down for a while as i was in some kind of shock.
watched christain bale in the unexpectedly enjoyable 'equalibrium' and drank cocoa-cola.
picked up colleen from the train station.
hamilton arrived by motorbike.
then we all took off to the beach accross the fields, by (push)bike in time for icecreams at sunset.

decided to take the roads home.
after doing a great job of keeping tight to the kerb all along the way, on the last bend before home i said to maximum 'there could be a car ahead, keep in close' at which he swerved right, straight across the path of an oncoming people carrier.
the people carrier was fortunately being driven slowly by friends of ours who didn't splatter him under it.
maximum is now grounded from riding his bike on the roads until he can prove he won't kill himself on them.
a big bonfire.
dinner with friends and good conversations.
and helped my folks book flights so they can come and stay with me in NY for a few days.
they've never been before.
how exciting...
