ALL A BIT SWALLOWS AND AMAZONS THIS HOLY WEEK

Our daily walk was around Over Peover Lower Withington way, a delightful road, wonderful hedgerow sounds, more of those wretched lycra maniacs hairing around at speed but other than that what a superb experience albeit we passed the site of Mandys horse accident  which ultimately lead to her early retirement. The gate with no fence was interesting. Best of all was a tree which seemed to attract all sorts of birds, we watched at close range a nuthatch and wren but there were masses on it, big enough as a tree but not too big so you couldn't see them at the top, foliage coming soon such joys then lost. More butterflies around, still got a lot of common blues in our garden, nice to huge Peacocks added, lots of pheasants gobbling up the farmers crops.

We were able to assist a young man called Bradley down in Southhampton, he loves buses but can't understand why he can't go on one, he is vulnerable and is facing a second term of isolation, we tied in with a local charity which bought a mass of downloads for Bradley which we added to as our contribution. Bradley always waves to me when I greet everyone at the start and finish of the clips he has watched on Youtube. I'm still scanning cine film and the garden work work goes on against the clock as turf arrives Wednesday , th3e hot weather is grinding to an end , it was 19C today which isnt bad for Cheshire, hot when you are working hard.

Easter blessings to all our viewers and readers, friends and relations around the world, we know that there are so many extra people on board with us and are trying to get some nice archive films ready, at least two on London buses in the 1960's due this weekend... in fact back to the editing grind stone.
