Long haul flight.

a constant gentle hum that gets inside your bones
a distant call bell dings
cocooned inside an eye mask and a face mask but

[anna elaine etc @reallyjustanna]

A year ago @katharinamonica and I were blissfully unaware of this quite frankly violently posh family name, now we're those people who bring our mum to Richmond and make her take pictures of us like this in public and I think we all know whose fault this is
