Microsoft Word - John Francome - Inside Track.Doc
“The low sun picked out the slopes and planes of the moor above. On the track halfway up the hill she could see two figures in custard-yellow anoraks heading up towards the tree line. That's what she should be doing, making the most of the bright winter weather and enjoying the spectacular countryside that lay right there on her own doorstep.
But there were two good reasons why she would not be joining the hikers up ahead. The first was purely practical. She'd been on the early shift, cleaning o...ffices in town, and she was hungry, dirty and tired. By the time she'd had lunch and a bath, the best of the day would be gone. All she'd be fit for was curling up on the front-room sofa and pretending to revise for 28 her A-level resit. Some hope. She'd be asleep before she'd read a page of notes.
The second reason was less easy to explain, even to herself. Alan had been dead for over two years now so it was about time she got back to normal.
Normal as in using her brain and enjoying those things that used to give her pleasure, like hiking the hills and riding horses.MoreLess
