The Shipping Forecast I
The striking thing about reading these piecesis that High Rockall and the general synopsis
you find that the area for the next 24 hours is
please. please. when all is said and done when
there are other considerations like the last Samurai
you know the one that followed all the others like
words?
The striking thing about reading these pieces is
that a new shipping area FitzRoy came into effect
and you find that the area for the next 48 hours is
stop. now. listen to the beginning like site reading
the sight reading when all is increasing or decreas-
there are other explorations like John Rae better than
Man Ray or the road to Antarctica is paved with
Maxwell Davis wouldn’t you say?
The striking thing about needing these pieces is
that full details are included in our Marine(s) the
weather services. North or Northwest 4 increasing
5 or 6, becoming cyclonic for a time.
there are other illuminations like the celebrated
Mr Kite celebrating his would you say kite?
or was he really sitting at the quay of the bay?
The striking thing about dreaming these pieces
is that Forties when 4 or 5 occasionally even
Dogger or Fisher or the German Bight needs
occasionally to rest, maybe in Humber, later.
there are other accumulations and if you look
at the city she conquered you will only see
New York lying at her feet. She never made
it into Julliard. Something about the way she
held the cello.

delicate and regular distortion of pitch. controlled waves

east Hebrides becomes a dead reckoning, plots on the last fix

decided by and during performance by the performer. long

Fair Isle, Faeroes westerly veering northerly 5 sometimes 6

not a feast of fools and not a description. we want to create
a fool’s paradise? no. no. no fixed abode. only arts. mysteries.
