find Tom

Saturday 22nd December, 1984.

beach hut Ko Samui

Do washing and general household duties. Read and walk. No sign of Weekender bungalows or Tom. Find both late afternoon, up far end of beach. Very nice set up, all full, great community spirit amongst the guests, big fat Moma rules the kitchen. Meet Tom and the Great Danes - Mikhail, Betle, Henrique, and Eva - who are rehearsing for the cabaret on Christmas Eve.
Long walk back at midnight along the beach, pitch black except for occasional flash of lightening, the twinkle of phosphorescence in the sea and the glow of a cigarette coming the other way.
