The Observer
Here they come. They have been called, but the movement is hardly
noticeable at first. People shuffling along rows of seats, excuse me,
ma'am, excuse me, sir, in ones and twos. Married couples in matching
shirts holding hands. Now, some groups of giggling teenage girls,
wondering if they should, smoothing their hair, checking their bags.
Young men holding Bibles. Enormous people in outsize shorts, following
their bellies, manoeuvring gargantuan backsides through gaps in the
crowd, gripping half-gallons of Coke. People with sticks, on the arms
of carers, watching every step. A silent army descending solemnly in
bright white Reeboks and Nikes.
