If only the Somerset and Dorset railway was still extant (spoiler: it isn’t) you could actually get a train through the festival site, either stopping at Evercreech Junction or West Pennard. *sings On the Slow T […]

A very satisfactory noise can be produced by stringing an elastic band between thumb and fingers, and then sticking the hand out of the car window as it is moving. Car speed changes the note, as does tightening the band.

Not only did we have Music, Mime and Movement (the order of these three may not be correct) at Primary School, we also did Country Dances, with Miss Pierce at the piano. Brighton Camp was one.

They are fab plants. We’ve got Cardoons (TMFTL?) which are just as big. No need to paint the greenhouse white, just plant a Cardoon nearby. Instant shade. And the bees love the thistle-like flowers.
