Not quite a jungle, not quite only in the rocks n stuff either but around my belly seems to be the rumbliest place after those earthquake/ tremors t’other day. Allow me to invigorate you with a tale as old as time (sort of) I donned me road slappers and me shorts, emptied everything from any pockets I may have had and went for a run. You, a run. I haven’t been underwater for a week or so after me last deep dive when me ear decided to wind me up. So I relented and jogged. AirPods in and off.

As I swept/ swooshed/ staggered by a lively tall glass walled building, I noticed the top most panes wobble… ‘how odd’ I thought. It was then that I noticed the crowd of gorkers beneath the perilous glass all pointing up and wondering what was happening. I had the initial thought that I was a fat fuck and the gods had made the ground shake at my feeble efforts to stay fit. 

Carrying on jogging with scant thought to what was going on, I reached the dive center and was accosted by one of the guys asking me if I had felt said tremor. Still oblivious to this natural way of things I said ‘nooooo’ it wasn’t until he told me he was under water with buzzing in his ears and watched bubbles rise up from the sand that I understood we were on top of a fault. I hurriedly went into the dive shop… with walls of glass and the second one struck. Windows rattled and things moved. I knew I wasn’t this fat. So yeah, the next day I shat meself. Earthquakes and arseholes..

Adam Adamson still is an awesome shag... Well he is. Honest. But whatever, he has always loved to write, even before he could write. Its been a passion of his since he realised that others would read his stuff and get a little emotional. That gripped him really. Was it good or was it crap? Anyhoo! Enjoy reading what i’ve scribbled and who knows… one day it might make sense.
