An Introduction

A long goodbye to Elliot's Wastelands

England is ill dear reader. Stained and embittered, Britiannia has set about herself. A people so immeresed in human affairs they have squeezed the irridescent joy from the night sky. Winter groans on and on. The earth hardens and cracks as the heart stiffens and beats... barely. Blood creeps slow, viscose.
A weary misty morning eye surveys the Englishman's demand to do something, feel something, but no, nothing. Empty hours waiting for the end. Pour something in, striate this vacuity. Another meaningless job? A pointless checklist? A birthday celebration? And so it rolls on and on.
There must be something worth fighting for? A child's smile perhaps or redemption from the claws of capital, but where to find this sweet release?
Trafford Centre? Arndale Centre? Sun blessed shores of Kerala?

    I am Helen, a friend of Dave's from Botswana. Have been living in Hanoi for 9 years and Dave sent me the link to your blog site. Do get in touch with me when you hit Vietnam. We should have a beer or whatever. If you need any travel advice for this part of the world, give me a holler also. Enjoy the travelling and stay safe.
    Cheers, H.
