Coincidences

Just an interlude. It was a Sunday morning and I was about to leave Frankfurt and I tool a walk to pass some time. Then a wind busker, a sat and watched. Could it be? Yes, I'd chatted to him in September 2018 on the same stretch of road. He's Cuban Leonel Fernandez Ortega, clarinetist and composer. He told me of a recent film commission. We chatted on making a living in music. A retired professor, Flora Guidry, now children's book author and in town for the Book Fair, turned up to chat. Then off but what felicitous coincidences! Small world.
