On Ira Posted on October 11, 2007October 11, 2007 “On partira de nuit, l’heure où l’on doute Que demain revienne encore Loin des villes soumises, on suivra l’autoroute Ensuite on perdra tous les nord On laissera nos clés, nos cartes et nos codes Prisons pour nous retenir Tous ces gens que l’on voie vivre comme s’ils ignoraient Qu’un jour il faudra mourir Et qui se font surprendre au soir Oh belle, on ira On partira toi et moi, où? je sais pas Y a que les routes qui sont belles Et peu importe où elles mènent Oh belle, on ira, on suivra les étoiles et les chercheurs d’or Si on en trouve, on cherchera encore” – On Ira, by John Jaques Goldman When: From October 12, 2007 Where: Up North Why: Do I ever need a reason? 🙂 The open skies, the green mountains and the road calls again. I will be gone till the end of the month. And will be back with lots of stories and photographs to add to my already growing pending travelogues, yet to be written!

Time to declutter Posted on October 14, 2003 I am trying to get a grip on my things as I organise my packing. I look around and suddenly the thought strikes me. I am a collector. A rabid collector. There is nothing I don’t collect. Bills. Statements. Books. Cassettes. Restaurant order slips. Doctor’s prescriptions. Ball point pens.
