Strut stetch and stride

well then
to move from strut
to stretch to stride
is rather a long step
a hop
who was it landed on the moon
and spoke of strides awkwardly?
well you remember
did you see that event?
I did.
That day I invited a young
Beginner programmer
to keep me company
knowing I would fire her next day
and so it went.

Yes FF I remember it, life seemed somehow more adventurous then, all this cyberspace is wonderful enough I guess but those days are hard to match

As it happened I watch it in the small lounge of the United service hotel, Cathedral square Christchurch. having worked there as a waiter and barman a few years earlier. It was demolished in 1990.
