TW3 + THE WEEKEND WASHOUT

ATTRIBUTED TO AA MILNE-

THAT WAS THE WEEKEND THAT WAS +THAT WASHOUT

IT RAINED IT WAS DULL AND IT WAS AUGUST –

TYPICAL ENGLISH WEATHER YOU SAY?

BUT ADDED TO THAT WAS THAT:-

THOUSANDS OF HARMLESS BIRDS

WERE SHOT IN THE NAME OF SPORT-

THE TEST MATCH CRICKET,

STOPPED FOR BAD LIGHT WAS A WASHOUT,-

THE SNOOKER FINAL WAS NON EVENT,-

THE F1 RESULT WHOLLY PREDICTABLE-

MAN UTD WERE KNOCKED OVER-

THE TV WAS FULL OF “CIRCUS” REPEATS-

OR ADVERTS THAT ARE FUTILE-

SCHOOLCHILDREN WERE CHEATED OUT OF THEIR FUTURE,

ONCE AGAIN, BY THE ESTABLISHMENT SYSTEM-

SO WAS IT TIME TO OPEN A BOOK?

GO FOR A WALK?

SPEND SOME MONEY ON “NEEDS” YOU DON’T REALLY WANT?

TIDY THE GARDEN PLANTS THAT HAD DIED A NATURAL DEATH?

CONSIDER WHAT PLANTS GROWN FOR FOOD

WERE READY FOR HARVEST

BECAUSE PLANTS LIKE ANIMALS (AND US) DO NOT WAIT LONG

BEFORE BEING PAST THEIR SELL BY DATE-

LIFE IS TOO SHORT FOR THAT-

AND

THERE IS AN OLD SAYING IN ENGLISH THAT

SOMETIMES I SITS AND THINKS

( ABOUT WHAT TO DO )

AND SOMETIMES I JUST SITS

WAS THIS WEEKEND THE FORMER OR THE LATTER?

OH DEAR

ITS MONDAY MORNING AND IT IS STILL RAINING
