Driving back down an unlit country carriage way, a wee bit stoned, earlier tonight. I reached the annoying bit of road works that has been the blight of my local A road for the past fortnight. I pulled up at the red light, and waited, 400 yards away I saw cars pull up at the lights at the other end of the roadworks. I waited as the amber lights flashed in the verge. I waited. I grew uneasy. Cars pulled up behind, cars pulled up in front. We waited, and waited and I got more and more paranoid that the red light was stuck. How long would I give it. If I started down the single stretch, What if the car at the other end did the same ? Was there anyone paying attention ? Should I beep my horn. How long should I give it ? Then I thought it would make a good prank this. See how long you could make people sit and wait for a red light that never changed.
hhmm.
Busy day tomorrow entering the underworld again...but only for a night..slim chance of a showdown...well not really but of a possible meeting at cultural event, where I shall act with complete composure and dignity...if it kills me...also I am taking someone with me designed to put him off balance, just in case. I don't want to be run off because he is there. I will kick myself afterwards.
