I had to leave really early this morning. It's like a different species
on the tube at this hour, the serious professionals if you will, none
of my fellow media types. How I know this is because there are a lot of
shirts and cuff links, females included. I have a charity event to go to
tonight, hence I'm going to get into work early. The charity is around
the water crises in Cambodia and Ethiopia. Considering how thirsty I am,
just from being on the tube for 10 minutes, I can't imagine what it must
be like to not have access to clean water, or any water for that matter.
Further to that everyone on this train looks successful and well fed.
Well if the Marc Jacobs is anything to go by, my seat neighbour really
does. We live in a world very far from malnutrition in this city. We
have water and beer on tap and a health/social system that won't allow
any child to die of starvation. So while I sip champagne at this event I
will try appreciate that what I'm drinking is clean and not only clean,
with bubbles. Hopefully there is something I can do to help quench the
thirst of people who have less than me.
