Time

Today I reminded myself of something I used to say quite often: "Timing is everything".  I think it is true.  In terms of music its about remembering that good music only works if there is consideration of the "rest notes".  In terms of RPM its about remembering you can only "smash it" if you take the time to take the "recovery" segments.  In terms of the "next opportunity" or "job" its about timing and the right connections at the right time coming together.  And in the "rest notes' periods, its about using that time to re-energise.

I also had a coversation with the Frenchman today (the Frenchman from Paris ex Fisherman who runs Cafe Mirabelle with his wife, -  the best French Cafe in Wellington/the Wairarapa).  Check this out and you will find others agreee with me:

I have a lot of time for the Frenchman because he tells a good yarn and has a good heart.  The Frenchman advised he was short of Thyme, and said if I could bring some in he would exchange it for coffee/pan au chocolait.  Luckily I have some thyme I can exchange - which will get a few coffees!  It is unfortunate that the preferred herb currency is not kaffir lime leaves, bay leaves or rosemary!

Workout today was again in the garden.  There is a reason I am not a professional gardener at my hourly rate and the progress I am making - still, I am making progress.  I also learnt a cool little move called the "running man" off the guy on Good Morning:
