A second year in the chair, a sword with a blade nobody cleans, and the theatre next to the pub.
Sentinel
Next door
Church bench marks found and lost, boulders laid out in rows, and a ghost sign I had never noticed.
Handy
An axe, a stapler, an old length of wood, and the finest seal sign on the Island.
Sitter
A course, a WhatsApp group and a stack of laminated signs: I am now a seal sitter.
On the hard
Moving Sandpiper twenty metres, a kingfisher, a car boot, fossils at Scarlett, and finally a crane.
X marks
A tax return to Andreas, two crosses in Douglas East, then Scarlett for what a wreck left behind.
Klein aber fein
The adventure vehicle goes north: antique shops in Ramsey, seals at the Point, and a broad arrow.
Borrowed days
Two borrowed days of sun: cars on the prom, a night aboard the Swan, and the harvest feast.
Upside down
A cave I did not go into, lobster on the prom, and a cat asleep on its back.
Marks
Mark Grand Lodge, a street where every single kerb is marked, and a sign that outlived its shop.
