Clump. Clump. Clump.
Careful with that carpet.
The sitting stool is taken.
Move the lights around.
In this drawer - here's a key.
Tobacco and moth flutter
and ivory, pass the violin
case. Put up with this sound.
Clump. Clump. Clump.
"Your wife, was she a proud woman?"
Adjust hat-stand
Circle smoking stall.
Rain patters on
and on and on and on and on...
"Show me the photos. Show me the smiles."
Lovely, David. I worked at the BBC in the sixties, and was present with the actors in the recording suites. A great insight into the backroom activities, all a bit like a goldfish bowl wired up and observed in detail . In those days recorded on reel to reel.
This felt very real!

A very clear descriptive imagery here to create the scene of bygone times.... And the emphasis of power of sound.... Radio...... I still listen radio every day on way home from work and write my own radio scripts which I gunnar try to get radio slot for publication
