One Better Day

There is a definite air of gloom around the place today. Bad news from the colonies, redundancies abound and the definitive lull that comes between Christmas and Easter.

I have been out filming today, and so have suffered the usual insults and jokes people feel they are able to make when you are in public with a big camera and tripod. But even these were tinged with suspicion and weariness.

As the corporate workhorse turns its frown to those no longer required, and the dark clouds of early March gather overhead, I am drawn into optimism.

A single song can pull away this feeling right now. An optimistic sound around a very sad lyric, but all the same it lifts all this above the self pity and despair.

'Walking round you sometimes.. feel the sunshine
Beating down in time with the.. rhythm of your shoes'

Madness leads to Happiness... 'One Better Day' Thanks boys.
