Winter Pink Skies

What is love? How can it be defined and measured? Lee has reason to ponder such things on a Saturday in hot July when he's out of sorts with life in general and with his lover Tony in particular.

At breakfast time Tony, a Master Jeweller by trade and also master of hearth and home, makes clear his stance on a particular topic. Lee is unhappy and believes he’s been unfairly disciplined.

Lee's day goes into a further tailspin when an ex-lover phones an order into his florist shop. He begins to wonder if he's still in love with Adrian, a man he hasn't seen or heard from in seven years, and if so what does that mean with regard to Tony? Has he fallen out of love with him?

The events of the day are told from the alternating perspectives of both Lee and Tony.

For Tony the day is complicated further still by the antics of his teenage ward, bad boy Darren.
