MUDDY
BROWN
WATER

A wave and big hello to Gordon and John
using their brains to work with their hands

Lehman Brothers
collapsed
in September
2007


The financial world
went into free-fall. 
My funeral €uros
were in Ireland
I was in England
eking out a meagre pension 
with no guarantee in 2009
that Irish banking
would not collapse
in 2010 as happened
elsewhere in 2008

045
​My funeral money could drop
into a fissure
opened
by the run on Northern Rock

 a boat to live in
and to travel on


might be a way of protecting
a precarious financial future
and eventual funeral prospects
as a 'non-cash' investment?


I began to assemble ideas

for a nomadic lifestyle
in a floating
man-cave
off-grid for days or weeks
​in any weather or season

Ideas beget lists

which can lead to plans
which in turn can lead to


DREAMS COMING TRUE
