I ran all night and day…

Mr Skosh St Leonards

One of the things I love about running are the unexpected sights that you encounter along the way. I haven’t run on the lower part of the prom for a while and I discovered this great new piece of street art this week. The purple and neon-pink are evoking total 80s vibes. I feel like they should install speakers and play a constant rotation of synth-pop and new wave music. A Flock of Seagulls anyone? 😉

  1. I started reading the first book from The Once and Future King by T. H. White in the middle of February but life and work have stepped in and slowed my reading progress.[↩]
  2. Conversely, my morning reading continues apace. After finishing ‘On Writing’ and ‘Unsubscribe’, I have added ‘A Room of One’s Own‘ by Virginia Wolf.[↩]
