15.36  Continuing organising & packing. Fumes continue to descend from the floorboards of the top floor. Pooey pooey.

E-flurrying on major arisings, including the on>off Crimson West Coast Celebration for March 2009.

When Ade’s e-mail notified us that he had dates in the KC target period of mid-April > mid-May, clearly this meant he wasn’t available. So I let go of the Celebration. I dropped it. Attention elsewhere, the Crimson Celebration wheel stopped turning for me. That the time period is now available again is irrelevant: this is not a question of dates in a calendar, this is a question of the availability of attention, intentionality, focus, commitment, a willing-ness. Rather than this being fun, it’s back to the Crimson life I know too well: life, attention & concerns being buffeted by circumstance, of not knowing whether a planned-undertaking will take place. From my e-mail to the Crims…

i don't know what happened to ade's proposed dates, but when I received the e-mail info i accepted it at face value, let go of the Crimsonising plans & moved on. my attention is elsewhere, my plans are elsewhere, and regrettably, now i'm not available. the moment of opportunity has passed. 

The good news: the future is now more available to be written than a week or so ago.

The Minx set off around 10.00 for vamping in Southend this evening, travelling via London. A major lorry accident on the M40 at 03.30 this morning closed the motorway in both directions, until lunchtime at least. T abandoned her London visit & left the M40 to get stuck in an accident near Aylesbury. One accident, major repercussions; two accidents, transport systems seize.

Prepping the F&F speaking notes. There is some very good material here.
