The time you texted me after months of silence and took us to a commune in the countryside, after stopping for boutique beers on the way. I got raspberry beer I think, or maybe it was chilli. And walking in the sunshine together thinking about whether we could live here one day, looking at you and thinking maybe we could make it. It’s silly but one of my favourite parts of that day was...

A television show where the three hosts compete by drinking gigantic tubs of their nominated liquid - the first chose black coffee, the second watered-down milk with soggy Weet Bix, the third…? Memories of breaking into a house before it was even built.

And then there it was; no words or justifications. No logic; no reasoning. It was like the opposite of terror - sheer excitement. Heart palpitations. If I held out my hands I’m sure you would have seen me trembling… I didn’t need to reach for you.
