Thank you

A latecomer ( apart from the wall)

I started listening at 16 in 1988
Fell in love
Drinking up your music with our ears
cuddled up

Meddle

Echoes was our tune first

We played it all Summer in Chelmsley Wood
That was weirder still in 88 on a council estate

Then when the Term started at Leeds
It seemed so far

In Autumn
We played Wish you were here
It broke our hearts
But we loved it
It became our place
Our Anthem for life
I painted 2 lost souls swimming in a fish bowl

Every time I hear that crackly start
It takes me right back
but I still savour the little listening journey
Enjoy the pain all over again

54 now

I felt welcome in your time machine so a part of me stayed
so I can return and visit you again and again

Cheers from Chelmsley Wood kids from 88
We were your weird unlikely visitors
We were aliens in Chelmsley Wood
but we we felt like we found one of our planets in you
Pink Floyd

Thanks
