It sounds deceptively easy, but I suspect that this list will be collected one at a time over a few weeks as I notice moments of flow.
So today let me record todays one. #1: Flying a kite. I went to the kite festival today with N and D and D's girlfriend. We wandered around looking at all the kites. I decided I would buy one, a real beginners kite called an Ollie. It looks a little like a jelly fish. It was a lovely bright purple colour. We took turns flying the kite. It was such a happy moment standing on the field with lots of other kite flyers, my kite soaring and dipping and diving and crash landing on the field.
My thanks go to the Chinese who apparently invented the kite, largely due to their abundance of silk and bamboo. Thanks guys. Just goes to show how important it is to use what you already have.
