Hail Storm in Fiddle Wood UK MVI 8441 Copy 4

  Winter 2024 to 2025 Spring, it being a very mild winter indeed. We had a flurry of light snow that did not lay and here the hail storm i recorded that hit the garden and sounded like pea gravel hitting the large bird bath on top of an iron work garden table.  BB 

Windy Wet Sway

WINDY WET SWAY written and presented by Paul Howes

Copyright 15/10/2024

It being now the forth day of heavy rain I awoke and climbed down the stairwell that led to the stone clad flooring of the great hall, that in pleasant agreeable measure guided me onwards to more openings along its cold to foot stretched out stone pathway. i entered the kitchen area with table set into place where heavy topped cupboard's ran the walls where they could. The cooking range here it seemed held its royal court and even the washing machine and drier bowed to its every hot scaled whim of sudden directed desire.  However the great triple window above the royal sink of wall to wall display looked out upon that delightful courtyard now superbly awash with its cast iron drain covers gulping the liquid down as if that were the refreshment for overheated  heads and thirsty mouths. Pirates came to my mind, but i left that thought for another day and story tales to come.

My Mrs B, was busy drying the cups and mugs, as i  entered that warm welcome kitchen and as we two looked out through those triple glass windows that had seen so many sights well before i arrived here over twenty six years ago. The high wind being such as it was,  i remarked. 'Just look at those leaves upon all those trees heaving about driven madly by the speed of such a wind swept storm. See how they, the largest set into place tree's communicate with one another during such a down-pore as this? And in such a swaying intermixing dance with one another driven madly by such a high wind of intermixed direction. 

The leaves are shouting out to each other , "This is our last happy chance of flurry before the dark eventful fall when we will all join in the hop skip and flying about tumble below, with all the other crisp dried out leaves in full flight from Fiddle Wood, after our one and only happy stay."

pause,rewind and play. Unfortunately we can't do that in real life!                                              

I beleive it has been agreed that around the world,  problems are besetting most of us?                              

Can we have hope however for any real improvement in the near future?                                                    In the hand's of mankind it would appear unlikely!                                                                                             

However based upon the promises Jehovah* God, had recorded in His written word "The Bible"

DALEK a New Batch! presented by BB

After over five years i finally managed to buy twenty three Imperial Daleks for my collection.

Now it certainly is a fact that i have written of my own version of Dalek, events over the years.

Mostly concerning the adventures of Fred and MayBell, using their toy figures to add comedy

       to my story lines and events that happened in  the village of Honey Well a mythical place              

created by myself but aided by my Dearest Mrs B.

                                                              

                         Now these are rather hard to find these days because what with the ongoing of time                                  space and rubish standard versions of ever increasing larger sizes have caused this situation.                                                                                                 

         Inspite of these being new and never played with ,firstly they needed a soapy wash with                            plenty of the finest of bubbles,which i am sure they did not mind at all. 

 

  They would soon dry out after their jolly good hot bath!

Sir Percy, and elusive friend stand in to review that their  standard to join a very large army is amply up to scrath. 'They are' they both decleared!  

Thank U for your visit. BB

Endeavour presented by BB

As Monday morning came around once more i found myself endeavouring to tidy up part of 'Fiddle Wood again'. It does seem at this time each year without fail, that people fly tip stuff into the woodland where Mrs B, and i live. They whoever they are have to live here too,and this sad small un-cearing few yes they are always dumping unwanted things especially like this time a huge complete plastic bag the size of a double bed.   So this is Christmas time again and somebody has a brand new double bed,and i expect the old one will end up in the wood too.                                                                                                                                             

Mrs B agreed with me that woodland animals here-abouts could get trapped and therefore suffocate in   such a large plastic bag.                                                                                                                             

       

As for the Deer and the Fox ,                                                                                                                      

Well they have no clear ability to escape once they enter these darn drifting, things that kill.                                                                 

So after a frenzy of display they give up and die.                                                                                        

But not here in Fiddle Wood ,on my Watch!

And so it was that we dragged it out of the wood,

My large sized scissors were soon put into action.

And soon after i began to cut it up into long strips, then smaller sized squares, Bella supervised  the easy quality control in Fiddle Wood, as it was gathered all up and went sailing into the large waste bin.                   

 The why of all this, is these things drift away upon the wind from Land Fill sites after dumping time and so are a clear and present danger to wildlife.                                                                                                   

i dare to make a guess that nobody would ever wish for one of these flying across the cars windscreen ?

O', BATS! by BB

This fortress towering high had been abandoned many years ago, however as the dark curtain of night had fallen reaching the land here about's, the castle sent forth its army of each dark dim night. 

 Bats by their Legions awoke from their slumber then arose up in flight ,and went bug hunting in their own noisy hungry way. But Why?

Well even a Beano Boy such as I, has to have a little fun at play. BB 

De-escalation. Written and presented by Paul Howes

From the Bible... Colossians chapter 4 verse 6  

 "Let your words always be gracious. seasoned with salt, so that you will know how you should answer each person."  

 

  Upon the first knock on that door   

The door swung open very quickly revealing the angry violent face of the man.

He shouted at the young lady, our sister in the truth.

''Get off my step and clear off! And get a real Job.''

The young girl standing beside her Mother said in a thoughtful inspired calm voice,

''There is no need to shout sir , my dear Mother and i are deaf !''
