Duet

It was getting dark and I was hurrying home along Glebe Point Road. It was peak hour and the footpath was kinda crowded. I was struggling to get past two young women walking shoulder-by-shoulder. When I finally passed them they both broke into song. It was beautiful 2-part harmony which receded into the distance as I left them behind. I don't know why they were singing. And I wished they could walk faster.

aw how lovely. it's kind of the opposite effect i'd like to have on most buskers (ie that they'd quit singing whilst you're in earshot).

but then, i'm just a cranky old bint.
