from my excursion down the side of a Docklands skyscratcher in a window cleaner's
cradle.
The first time we achieved liftoff I couldn't go through with it and had to
be set back down on the roof.
Second attempt worked after I slumped on the floor with my eyes closed and
thought nice thoughts as we eased over the edge.
After awhile I found my feet, at least temporarily – see 'making a stand',
below, for my companion's reaction.
Because it's there
