Near Birmingham, but today we were down
In Sutton, Surrey, at the football field
And it was warm the whole time in that ground
Great for the end of October, a sound
Use of the day with Louis. Full breakfast
In Leytonstone, then long train journey round
East London, Waterloo, Wimbledon, rest
On the platform bench waiting for the next
Train to West Sutton, where the ground revealed
Itself between hedges. In the shop, found
A nice bath towel with the Sutton crest
Shame I can’t sunbathe on it, it’s too cold
For that, now that we are late autumn bound
