Lunchtime symphony


I've been really quite busy, and am between projects trying to get organised. I was completely exhausted by making a Victoria sponge cake with my Mother this morning(!), so thought I'd have a lie down in the "quiet" at lunchtime.

I just listened for twenty minutes and was amazed at what sounds the wind was bringing in, (Children playing at a local school playground, a chain saw, trains, dogs barking, lorries, sirens, the wind in the trees,cars etc).

Its not till you stop, you notice all the things you miss because you are going too fast.

Someone once said, "Anythings dangerous at high speed". Perhaps we should all slow down, and listen.
