‘My Job, Like the Anaconda in My Dream, Is Consuming Me.’

ED Surge

The original version of this essay was published on Medium. I detest when people talk about their dreams. It’s similar to listening to a 4-year-old tell you about their day.

Thanks to my colleague Andy Marshall for sending me a picture of this shirt: apparently the Partick Thistle 3rd shirt for the 2023-24 season. The white base is decorated with an aerial depiction of the local Maryhill area of Glasgow - in the famous red and yellow (with grey) - with Thistle’s “Wyre Stadium at Firhill” home featuring prominently, and also a school where he used to teach, so a personal connection there too.
