And for no real reason Sunday's notifications are done in rhyme

 

It's Sunday so again its time

to do the daily blogs in rhyme:

 

It may be Spring, but we're covered in snow,

the heaviest its been for years,

I'm not compaining I'd have you know

I'm not resorting to gloom and tears,

but it means our plans for the week ahead,

will have to change, just wait and see,

and we'll do something else instead,

It will work out somehow, wait and see.

 

ciaou....

 

Forgive me for banging on about our webTV show, but it matters a lot to me, and I would be grateful for an many people as possible to see it, and spread the tidings of it far and wide:

FORTEAN BIRD NEWS FROM THE WATCHER OF THE SKIES

What has Corinna's column of Fortean bird news got to do with cryptozoology? 

Well, everything, actually! 

In an article for the first edition of Cryptozoology Bernard Heuvelmans wrote that cryptozoology is the study of 'unexpected animals' and following on from that perfectly reasonable assertion, it seems to us that whereas the study of out-of-place birds may not have the glamour of the hunt for bigfoot or lake monsters, it is still a perfectly valid area for the Fortean zoologist to be interested in.

THE GONZO BLOG DOO-DAH MAN ESCAPES

The Gonzo Daily: Friday/Saturday

http://www.gonzomultimedia.co.uk/about.html

 

Today we took receipt of some smoke bombs that I want to use for a particular stunt in our webTV show, and Corinna wouldn’t let me set them off in the garden. And then to make it even worse, Graham said that it was not a good idea either and that they should be tested under “controlled conditions”.

 

Neither of them seemed to accept my plea in mitigation that I am an “artist” and that as such I should be able to let off an many pyrotechnics in my own garden as I wanted.

 

Reluctantly I agreed, and so I shall let you all know what transpires.
