Call is complete or more accurately I believe it to be so. My companion is about to review the left hand side, I nervously await her verdict. We are separated at the moment by a distance of some miles. She waits for me at my lodgings sending regular messages about madmen in the street and the unusual movements of Miss Brown in the flat above. Happily, below, the smokers seem to have been thrown on to the street and have been replaced by a much more continent individual who treads quietly. In my lodgings we experience everything through sound first, we could look but often choose not to. Call, I have decided, is as much about sound as vision so I have left the sound on the right hand film also. Here in the countryside I am watching television and burning a dvd of all my Whitstable films for Sue Jones, I pray she will like them too.

Call

Since a brief but debilitating illness I have been trying to catch up with my work for Whitstable. I have decided to title it Call though I did consider Caul, I have never been good with titles. It will be split between two screens one silent the other not so. One will depict the caller the other the players although there will be some crossover. This is, I believe, my first film with real people and a necessary narrative. This fact is making me somewhat agitated. My daughter is watching The Green Mile on television where Tom Hanks is taking an inordinate amount of time to execute a prisoner using electricity. I am afraid watching my film might prove similar.

Upon making this post I was shocked to realise my subscription to this august publication is about to expire. In fact it has only one day to run (the number is in red to the right of this screen). My finances hang rather finely in the balance at the moment making me wonder which obligations I can afford to keep up. Re-title has already fallen by the wayside. I have given myself a month to bend my website to my will or drop it. Axis? AN? it is a delicate decision.

Lincoln

With pity in his voice the mustachioed guard informed me that it would take over four hours to get to Lincoln and that I would be blessed with an hour to cool my heels in Peterborough. At around 25 pence per minute I believe the train to be great value for money. At one I shall be presenting my work to students in Lincoln. Happily I am being distracted from my nervousness by a gentleman two seats away who is managing to stretch his legs under the table in front of him, under the facing seats and into my footwell. I have been kicked twice and fear that before long I must challenge him on his inconsiderate behaviour.

Whitstable part 1 We are travelling! The six eleven train departed on time and I am hopeful we shall make our ongoing connections at Stratford, Stratford International and Rochester. My companion has rallied during the day. She sports a little more colour in her cheeks and is gaily showing me photographs of Manchester on the Guardian website. I must admit I am nervous of what lays ahead. eight more posts detailing my adventures in Whitstable are now available at http://thepearlfisher.blogspot.com
