Head Space Daily Words...

Today was sports day at my boys’ school. I had my eldest son’s in the morning and my youngest son’s in the afternoon. Plenty of running, jumping, throwing and egg and spooning took place. A local Lewisham organisation runs these events and they always have music playing over a sound system. DJ Pied Piper ‘Do You really Like It’ stood out for it’s dreadful, yet contagious naffness - “I’m lovin’ it lovin’ it lovin’ it, I’m lovin’ it like that” - a couple of fantastic tracks from Laura Mvula’s album were played and another that stood out was the lovers rock track featured in today’s Head Space Daily Tune. The only memory I have from one of my own sports days is doing the wheelbarrow race with a friend in first school. I was the leg holder and he was the barrow, scampering along on his hands. He was a small lad and we had a technique, which involved me holding his legs fairly high up, above his knees. This must have enabled us to move more quickly. Anyway, throughout the race, my friend’s tracksuit bottoms gradually slipped down until by the end they were literally around his ankles, with his polyester BHS y-fronts being displayed in all their glory. Happy days…
