• Basically this means getting faster, but it should really have a mathematical or statistical element to the increase in speed. So tomorrow you may go twice as fast as today, and the dafter you may go twice as fast again. Kind of like how we are depleting the resources of Planet Earth.

    It must be about ten years ago that I began writing lullabies with the idea of doing a picturebook. I had such negative reaction to the dummy I showed I kind of gave up. No one liked my hero and thought no one would by a lullaby books with unknown lullabies in it.

    I’ve now realised that Youtube could maybe let me approach the project from a different angle, so, here for your amusement and delectation is a demo of one of the songs called City Lullaby, inspired by a hot steamy visit to New York. I was amazed at the noise and bustle that never seemed to stop. I wondered how any child ever got to sleep there.

  • To deplete is to exhaust a resource that was one available in abundance – kind of like what we are doing to the Planet Earth and all it’s resources.
