A New Garden Fork....

26/4/2018

I've gone and bought a new garden fork
I would love to be serious and do that horticultural talk
I'm trying to get excited about digging up weeds
and planting lots of new garden seeds

Still waiting for my gardening mo jo
it will kick in when the grass needs to be cut so low
I get distracted though ya see and gardening is no more
I think I'd rather be doing some other unsightly chore

There are those with fingers so green
with gardens, the best I've ever seen
I'm jealous of those folk who love it so much
and pop along to gardening clubs just to keep in touch

When I make a start I'll be absolutely fine
unless my mate comes round mine with some wine
One cannot be in charge of a mower when drunk
I may end up with borders that are well and truly sunk

I tried growing veg but that din't go well
my greenhouse turned into a triffid growing hell
I grew a few wonky spuds
better than nowt I suppose that's quite good

I''ll leave it to Titchmarsh he's a professional you know
give him a spade he'll find something to grow
Maybe I could invite him round mine for tea
he'll run a mile when he realises it's me.

Thank you for reading today,
come back tomorrow for Free from Friday

until then....

Take care

A Change in the Weather...

We are never satisfied when the weather is hot or cold
I think we get fussier as we get old 
I can’t make my mind up with what I prefer
I think we get stuck in a season before the big transfer 


Ya see I used to find winter miserable and sad
I hated the dark nights and the weather being bad
But something has made me love it once more
I’ve realised I liked being wrapped up cosy and indoors


Now I see that it’s sunny and hot
What happens now, well guess what?
I’ve now got to garden for which I’m not a fan 
The grass has bloomin grown in winter there is a ban


Oh I know I shouldn’t moan or get really upset 
I should feel happy to see another season and have no regrets
I’m thinking all plants and grass should be plastic 
Now that would be just bloody fantastic

Thank you for joining me today,
come back tomorrow for 
Free From Friday.

Take care for now

Knitting in Blue

I'm knitting in blue
no reason and no baby that's new
I'm just knitting in that shade
so I can get to the end and look at what I've made

I've knitted many scarves as they are easy to do
If I can do this knitting thing then so can you
You don't have to create anything posh
simply knit with a basic stitch it won't cost you much dosh

Next I think I may knit in pink
apparently it's the colour to make the boys wink
But that's not what's important at this time
it's pink next before moving onto lime

Yes I have a bag of wool that is overflowing
I'd better get my needles ready, set and going
It's a hobby that is very relaxing
and not really that brain taxing

They say it can lower the pressure of your blood
and that can only be very good
So come on and join me it's something to do
You can knit any colour while I carry on in blue

Thank you for reading today
come back tomorrow for more....
on Free From Friday
but
for 
now
take care

Leave Alone the Male Voice Choir

Why can't we have a male voice choir?
Have the women gone a little bit sour?
I'm all for rubbing shoulders with the guys
but give them a break, it's ok in my eyes

So shall we invite men into the WI?
I bet that wouldn't go down well - just you try
Sometimes I think equality has gone too far
let the men sing their manly repertoire 

They sing very low, too low for some gals
and that's ok we can still be good pals
There are other choirs where ladies can go
our Rock Choir is mixed and around if you didn't know

I've sang alongside the Derbyshire Constabulary Male Voice Choir
they are brilliant, sound so rich, a change they don't require
So leave them be, leave their name as it is
For a good many years it has been like this 

Why do we feel the need to fix something that ain't broke?
The laws of equality, good grief it's no joke
But really is it that important to conform?
Let it be Chief Constable and let them perform

🎵🎶🎵

Thank you for reading
catch me again tomorrow for Free From Friday
for now though....

Take care
