BATH

I went to Bath today walked along the towpath that runs beside the Kennet and Avon canal. Two people came towards me I thought it was two older women but it turned out to be a man and a woman. I kept my head down thinking about what I was going to be doing later not looking at them as they got closer then went by me. The man who walked behind the woman said, ‘hello,’ I turned my head toward him not looking at me and said, ‘hello.’

Later on my way back in the dark along the towpath to the station a man carrying a shopping bag in each hand and weaving round the puddles like I was said as we passed each other, ‘it’s like a maze isn’t it?’ ‘It is indeed,’ I replied.
I wondered why he’d said something to me.
