There is something really therapeutic about marking out football pitches.
So when I found myself on a huge expanse of playing field at 5am on Friday morning, ready to measure, mark and line ten mini soccer pitches I wasn't that perturbed at the turn of events.
I will admit the first one was a bit of a chore, but that was mostly down to ensuring that the measurements were correct, and that I was going to have enough pitch left to accommodate all of the pitches required.
By the time I was pushing the line marker along I was quite content with my lot, absorbed with the job at hand and at one with the world. It's hard to explain until you have tried it, just you and this very simple mechanical contraption moving from point to point.
Bliss.
Stay safe.
