Fisher of Time


This is one of the Sustrans sculptures on the York to Selby cycle route. It is on the old east coast main line, which was abandoned in the 1980s. Hard to believe that Mallard would have once been charging up here at over a 100 miles per hour.

I was having a drink with Mark in the Commonwealth club last night when I saw Jabez, a friend from 10 years ago in Islington. Then he was an ardent [and painful] trade unionist. Now, he was schmoozing with Lib Dems trying to get the British Chinese vote. We all change.
