Lives of great men will remind us
We can make our lives sublime
And,departing, leave behind us
Footprints on the sands of time.
Footprints, that perhaps another,
Sailing o’er life’s solemn main,
A forlorn and shipwrecked brother,
Seeing, shall take heart again.
Longfellow

I saw a jolly hunter
With a jolly gun
Walking in the country
In the jolly sun.
In the jolly meadow
Sat a jolly hare.
Saw the jolly hunter.
Took jolly care.
Hunter jolly eager-
Sight of jolly prey.
Forgot gun pointing
Wrong jolly way.
Jolly hunter jolly head
Over heels gone.
Jolly old safety catch
Not jolly on.
Bang went the jolly gun.
Hunter jolly dead.
Jolly hare got clean away.
Jolly good, I said.

I find myself in the unusual situation of having internet, electricity and my laptop available, so have just enjoyed your photos on a sensibly-sized screen.
ReplyDeleteThere were many upon which I could have commented, but two led me to a little more research:
- I shared your horror at the thought of boarding at Riddlesworth School from the age of 3, so I took a little peek at their website. I was marginally more comforted to see that whilst they take children from the age of 3 (in their Pre-Prep section - is that where you prepare the little-uns for their preparation?), they don't take boarders until they're 7. I was less impressed to find a missing apostrophe in the first paragraph of the first page of their website upon which I happened.
- Your map made me wonder if we had walked part of the Angles Way ourselves. Yes, was the answer, we followed it from just NW of Lowestoft, to its conclusion in Great Yarmouth, on the first day of our Lowestoft to Ardnamurchan walk in 2011.
