SPECIAL DAY







Every now and again something happens that makes you just love Homo sapiens, doesn't it?

Imagine that you were me, on this balmy day, sitting sipping a chilled beer, overlooking the beach, chatting with friends.

The bar is due to shut in fifteen minutes, but this evening it will remain open for another hour on the off-chance that a large group of estate agents will be coming along after their hard day's conference.

Suddenly, from around the corner of the elevated walkway, we become aware of the sound of excited adults (almost a contradiction of terms when realising they are conditioned, trained estate agents).

And then the object of their excitement becomes clear, when, like the wearing of masks at a masked ball, their pent-up emotions are given the all-clear.

Kites.

Each person trying to catch the slightest breeze, to keep their hatched personalities a-fly.

Giggling, chatting, offering tips, they communicate - at last.
