I just laughed when I read the words "The city is a symphony of dripping . . "!!!! It brought back memories of Vancouver 30 years ago when at age 18 I was taken to Cloud Nine )(The restuarant(!!)) by a funeral director. His car had been covered in dripping (fat) as the night before after a high speed car chase, a huge vat of fat (dripping we call it in New Zealand/Australia)had been hit and tipped its contents over his car. Therefore I was taken to Cloud Nine in his hearse!!!! May Vancouver always be a 'Symphony' of dripping!!!!!!!!
