Crumbs From the Corner: Adventures in Woolgathering. Wednesday, October 28, 2009. I am a speedy walker, but the other day, while jog-walking to the library, I was forced nearly to a halt behind a shuffling, stooped old man in a cloth cap. I caught up with him on the footpath but was lamentably unable to overtake. I was in no particular hurry; I took minute steps at a reasonable distance behind him and expected that our paths would soon diverge. I spent a curious-shaped amount of time inside the dusty vau...

Crumbs From the Corner: Adventures in Woolgathering. Tuesday, February 23, 2010. Months ago I got a set of stickers that I thought might make a gift for a child. I wanted them this afternoon, and I hunted high and low; but the safe place in which I had put the stickers was extraordinarily safe, and I could not find them. Given that logic and reasoning and looking in all the normal places had not worked, I decided to ask my mother. Do you," I asked, "know where the stickers are? What sort of a shelf?

Crumbs From the Corner: Adventures in Woolgathering. Tuesday, December 13, 2011. Last week, Mater and her chum N patronised a little, local eatery, and each scoffed a small mushroom quiche, chips, a half-stuffed egg, and a salad with red onion, tomato, corn and dressing. I'm not entirely sure what a half-stuffed egg consists of; perhaps the chef gave up in the middle and decided to fashion the salad instead. No," said N with emphasis; "I'm paying.". I'm paying," said Mater, "and that's an end to it.".

Crumbs From the Corner: Adventures in Woolgathering. Friday, April 27, 2012. Joyce, on hearing that I hail from Ireland, said she had many, many moons ago stumbled upon a village in the south of my homeland. Enid, it was called. I assured her I hadn't heard of it; she was equally certain she'd been there. It must, I replied, be one of those tiny backroad corners that even locals hadn't heard of; Joyce remembered it as a bustling, lively place in which she'd found plenty to see as a tourist. Maybe Enid wa...

Crumbs From the Corner: Adventures in Woolgathering. Sunday, November 27, 2011. Gnarly Tree Company was offering deliveries of free garden mulch, and Spouse and I were in need of mulch, so we filled in a form and requested a delivery, and we waited. Weeks upon weeks later, we got an early morning phone call to say that the Gnarly men were in the neighbourhood and would be unloading mulch in our garden within the hour. He was also, rather alarmingly, the driver. At last the assistant fetched a shovel, cla...

Crumbs From the Corner: Adventures in Woolgathering. Thursday, July 26, 2012. A Travel Poem For Mater. Have you booked it. Have you booked it. The daughter, she inquired. We've looked at endless tickets. And now I'm awfully tired. The mother she replied. I'm chartered on an air-balloon. At the very next high tide. The weary daughter whined. The tide's gone in and out again. But your balloon I cannot find. The mother's voice down floated. Thick clouds are 'tween the two of us! I knew I should have boated.

Crumbs From the Corner: Adventures in Woolgathering: September 2009

Crumbs From the Corner: Adventures in Woolgathering. Wednesday, September 30, 2009. Spouse and I took the train to San Francisco, settling into a corner and staring out the window for the journey's length. There a tree, there a creek, there a turnstile shop. I sat bolt upright in my seat. I startled Spouse. There, on the other side of the railway tracks, was a store with an enormous painted sign:. Mater was right all along," I said, in purest wonder. Where would we get our own turnstiles? A toaster which,.
