Friday Nights at The Goof

Sometimes a memory surfaces so clearly I can smell it. I wrote this to pin down one of those nights before it faded completely.

Warped records on high.
No one dancing.
Standing around.
Or slouching on benches.

Loved it, although the head-hopping was a little hard to get used to. I felt for Mrs Palfrey. So believable. A real slice of life.
