Each morning I am rudely awakened by the frantic Boom tish, Boom tish of our local one man band being chased up the street by the neighbours dog

I used to be a one man band but I split up after my legs decided on a solo career.

Why are my bed springs so rusty?

I used to work in an optitians but I got thrown out for making a spectacle of myself.

[bl] I didn't completely lose it on reading your last.

[Wol] Very dull image isn't it?
Once I dreamt I was a butterfly, then I awoke and now I don't know if I'm a man who dreamt he was a butterfly, or if there's a natural reason for me to be fluttering about in midair like this.

I used to dream that I was flying in an old open biplane, but I fell out of that one.
