A cloud over Wydon Water: a fluffy, white cloud like an ocean liner. The rest of the sky, charcoal smudges on a delftware ground, but this big, bright, majestic pile of mashed potato proceeding up the valley. The bottom is a great brick of a thing, the top like a chef's hat, some kind of ledge between.
From time to time there's a flash from the middle, lighting the top half in a friendly tungsten orange.
At first you think you're going mad. There's no noise, no rumble. So you stand by the sedge and cow-parsley, moths flitting through them like a cyberpunk city; bats -- proper Bat-Signal bats against the moon -- hunting midgies flying up, out the way of gulping fish.
Then comes a ball of light from the very centre of the cloud, then nothing -- a fuse blown.
Walking back through the estate, every TV is tuned to the football. Surely, they're not the same commentators as when I was a child. But they sound just the same.
Dark now. All that's left is a smudge of salmon over Scotland.

A very nice spot on a summer's afternoon on the banks of the River Aln in Alnmouth, Northumberland.
Such a great place to take a rest and enjoy the view so I was lucky to find it temporarily unoccupied.
On the far side of the river is Church Hill, once the location of St Waleric's Chapel, it faced gradual decline after the reformation, not mention erosion of the hill itself.
However, in the early 1800's a storm saw the sea brake through the low-lying stretch of land between the village and the hill and the course of the River Aln was diverted, effectively cutting off access.
According to Bede, Archbishop Theodore presided over a synod on the hill in 684, in the presence of King Ecgfrith of Northumbria and whereupon St Cuthbert was elected Bishop of Lindisfarne.
