Listening

As Gordon Craig said of woodcutting (in 1924): "It is a work which I found allowed one to listen, if not to speak , while practising it."

He listened to the novels of Dumas. While TravelWriting I'm listening to announcement after announcement - to people talking on mobile phones - to snatches of conversations - to ambient noise.
