"now it's time to say goodbye to all our company"

okay, so like, the time has - finally - come and San Francisco has quietly closed it's Golden Gate. She has flown and released her kites, tears flowing like wine down cheeks normally turned towards the sea.

Funny how the end never carries with it joy, fear or dread, just a sense of finality.

Sunday in New York, Monday as well then just the two of us

"M-I-C (see you real soon) K-E-Y (why? because we love you) M-O-U-S-E!"

To each and every one of you "rat-bastards" may God bless and keep you forever as you are: safe, secure and loved by the pair of us. Your friendship and love is treasured more than you will ever know
