take away
i worry about my favourite window those faded blinds that glorious yellow that string hung treasure... one day soon i'm sure i'll turn the corner onto clerkenwell green and oh i don't think i could bear it...
on a cheerier note having sworn at crappy tecnology far too much these last weeks i thought it'd be handy to be able to take some of the magic mix thingies that've been popping out like i don't know what home or out or any gosh darned where funny signal whatsit be damned starting with this weeks gardening records...
so take away and enjoy sweet pals

paradise gardens
here it's ducks on the roof crash landing eating me out of house and home then daredevil taking off again treat this place like a bleedin caff (which is fine by me) the first bats chasing the first bugs goldfinches greenfinches bulfinches blackcaps galore since the new niger/sunflower heart/black sunflower seed mix went up long tailed tits nesting in the bamboo parrots on the peanuts starlings in the bath woodpeckers on the buggy nibbles squirrels bouncing off of everything bounceoffable... soon it'll be grunting hedgehogs grunting up the night (which is fine by me)... and the magnolia is glorious and the peas are sprouting and the rocket is still rocketing like it has all year through... and we can't have spring without blossom...
blossom dearie - days of wine and roses
and what with missing a day let's have another...
