you've stuck by me through it all: the recession and numerous closures on the high street, the emergence of a mexican burrito stand (only one more and i would've had a free one...) and the opening of a tk maxx! oh yeah. bargains galore.
i will miss the writing on the walls. the bricks above foxtons muse: 'time like an ever rolling stream,' and near the thames you can spot 'time and tide wait for no man' above eye level. i'll miss watching the tidal patterns as i cross putney bridge, once in the morning and once in the afternoon. i'll miss counting the carriages on the district line trains running across the next bridge over. i remember well my lunches in the graveyard behind st mary's, the grouchy librarians and the always-crowded-no-matter-what-time-of-day pavements.
goodbye putney. it's back to hampstead now with its yummy mummies and baby gap sales!
