Those long summer nights watching the sun come down over Mousehold Heath ….

Mousehold, where I walked darling Tilly for all those years. I miss her, and I miss the heath.
Bless you both
You don’t wanna go Folk Radio, Lodey, go ‘ere:

Never liked that guy. Writes too damn well for my liking.
Me neither, but she maintains my self-employed status.
This post doesn’t seem to concern either Taylor Swift or someone cheating at Wordle. I don’t understand.
Taylor sings backing vocals on the closing song and “brown” is the fourth favourite Wordle starter. Do pay attention
I’d have to care to know that…
Hey @mod-team-2
Where’s my, admittedly not very exciting, thread gone? Not on Main Forum Page?
A scandal, I may have to flounce..
Nobody cares, bloody freezing out here
How does it feel?
How does it feel?
To be on your own
With no direction home
Like a complete unknown
Like Lodestone
Witty but hurtful. I’m just hanging around for my next meal
Bloody mods, sitting in their basement smoking joints and playing Super Mario and wishing they had a girlfriend….
So, some of these guys are from King’s Lynn?
Yeh.
But Lynn is a shit hole.
Yeh.
Out of little sugar beets ….
Yeh.
No hurry, Mods, we’re on Norfolk time
My “Madonna’s late, surprising for a woman her age” is in the same position. Otherwise it would be as hampertastic as all my other threads, notably “Saucecraft’s Dylan Pink Floyd Beatles Football Afterword” which garnered me enough tinned chicken to keep Private Walker in nylons until VE day and beyond.
You got someone to flounce this week Lodey, you should be sitting in your mountain lair stroking a white cat in an attitude of deep contentedness. Allow yourself a “bwahahahaha”. I know I would.
Not Norfolk but next door, that sugar beet has to go somewhere.

Mods, hold you ‘ard, don’t be botherin’ with the likes of my Norfolk Catskills thread. No sirree, sure you got important things to do today like update the Posting Guide – “Thou shalt not use a false second identity in order to continue to hurl scurrilous accusations against innocent Wordle players”……
Maybe being Bri’s lobbyist isn’t helping.
Think I just saw an egret. Hard to tell, what with it being dark and all.
Egrets I’ve seen a few but then again too few to mention.
Non, rien de rien
Non, je n’ Egret rien
Ni le bien qu’on m’a fait
Ni le mal.
Up
Clever, witty people who care not one jot I’m out here in a reed-bed alone, neglected, forgotten, cold
Once bittern twice shy.
….and one good tern deserves another.
Moosey are you storking me?
Oh no, I’ve been bustard!
A rapid comeback Moosey, very swift.
Shag anyone? No? Nobody?
God it’s lonely out here on the perimeter…
Lodey, don’t cut up ruff.
Jokes about bitterns?
They’re pretty funny.
Boom boom.
Though hard to swallow.
Laugh, you lot, laugh. I could have had a hamper by now but, oh no, us Mods, we’re too high and mighty, much better things to do, like whatever it is Mods do…
The most popular thread in AW history currently stands at 1635 comments. That’s an astonishing… hang on, I’ll use my computer’s calculator… 16.35 imaginary hampers for Baron H. He could pretend to give you one of his.
What was that thread @Gary ?
Not was, is.
Three people talking to each other day after day after…. must be nice to have some company. Anybody seen one of them Mods?
We rarely talk to each other.
Occasional snippets of conversation but we mostly communicate by heliograph.
Keeps the conversation light?
Hamper for Lodey.
He’s not a pheasant plucker, he’s a pheasant plucker’s mate.
I haven’t eaten horse since that time in Antwerp: cost a ruddy fortune it did. Frites were very nice
….and it was only the previous September you tried reefer for the very first time.
Glad I wasn’t drinking tea when I read that comment
I tried the emergency hotline number but it went straight through to Pizza Express, Dorking.
“I’m looking for an AfterWord Mod to sort out my disappearing thread problem”
“D’ya want doughballs with that?”
Hold out for the polenta chips.
Trying to find Prince Andrew?
Just been to see the band in Ipswich and apologised for the fact that The Mods are a useless shower of no-goods and that “their” AW thread is still a no go area.

Are you allowed to keep the hamper if 92.34% of the comments are yours (I know, Rules is different for Kaisfatdad)?
Lodey, you’ve managed to get to 50 comments on a post that can’t be found.
Maybe hidden threads are the way to go like the hidden tracks on a cd.
I am shocked to read the revelations about the temporary disappearance this thread.
The Catskills are clearly a wonderful place.
As is Norfolk.
I suspect foul play by another tourist board, envious of the success of these two wonderful destinations.
There’s definitely something fishy about it all.
Good luck on your Chicken Run, Lodey!
A gorgeous pop song about the Catskills from NY combo the Ladybug Transistor.
Alan Bennett now with some redundant intimacy from Norwich.
Here’s Alan discussing Love Island.
I’ve just looked up Catskills on yer Google Maps and it is between Athens and Leeds (which is South East of Cairo).
I don’t think America’s founding fathers were very good at Geography.
One for Moosey: up the road from Athens is Coxsackie, which is next door to Climax. I say!
One for the crap tribute bands thread: The Coxsackie Blues Band.
Climax is difficult to get to, for some.
I used to live near the Catskills, go further North and get on the I-90 which basically goes coast to coast from Boston to Seattle, you will drive past Leeds, Sheffield, Liverpool, Amsterdam, Geneva, Frankfort etc
Try the A47 mate, that’s proper dangerous
The Acle Straight 😱
There used to be an ambulance permanently stationed along there ..
And that pub. The John H Stacey? Tracey?
Strange place for a boozer.
