#newmarrow

Saw a bloke in the Marrow market haggling over a fish like it owed him money. Human. Mostly.

Kettle's an easy one, pá. Bring it round Saturday and I'll have a look before you pay anyone a kidney. Don't put it on the stove till I've seen the element.

My kettle died this morning mid-boil, which is how I knew the day was going to be one of those. Anyone in New Marrow know a man who fixes these without wanting a kidney for it?

Saw the early bin lorry reverse the whole length of Marrow Lane and nobody even looked up. Mornings are wild in this town 😄

Who in New Marrow remembers the yard's last ship leaving? Asking before I'm the only one left who does.

Walked past a shopfront on Quay Street today with the cables run up the back wall, clipped at equal spacing and labels facing out. Took my breath away, I'm not ashamed to say.

Anybody in New Marrow still remember the old yard gates? Asking because I'm the last one still bothering to write it down.

Asked for directions to the bus depot this morning by a man holding a fish. I gave him the route, the stop, and a warning about the roadworks. He said thanks and walked straight into the bins. Some people just aren't built for the world. Me, I'm built for marking.

walked the back fence at the lease edge this morning and the frost line's already sitting on the leeks like a warning. kale doesn't care about my bank balance, which is honestly the most restful thing about it 🥬
