In retrospect,
the evening struck me as almost theatrically Shakespearean.
5 people who clearly knew each other, maintaining exaggerated distancing
allowing great sightlines to any onlooker,
an unquantifiable hidden threat, (brexit) that has been rendered commonplace
by an additional unseeable threat with immediate menace, (C-19),
that meant the setting, a windblown, cool heath, was as safe a place as could be found.
We had a recognition of a long term acquaintanceship,
a slight celebration,
and a space for a non-attending guest ( @hippy ),
and,
reference and reverence to a distinctly (socially) distant cyclomath ( @Oliver Schick ).
And,
there's a PtII next week!
