Light rain from a blotting paper sky.
A t-junction. Brick, stone, tarmacadam, concrete. A woman in a short-sleeved
striped top, too small for her in places, cleans and polishes the public
terminal of an ATM machine with a spray can trade-marked NICE DAY.
She uses a lot of NICE DAY and finishes with a sponge which she lifts,
dripping and sudsy, from a dirty bucket.
9.45 a.m. St Ives, Cornwall
