I spotted this Birding Boffin a day or two ago .. I was strolling along a rather narrow path at Grumbling Stumps when all of a suddy this bloke loomed into view ... and he was followed by a huge, narrow-path-filling conglomeration of 20+ anoraked shufflers who filled the aforementioned narrow path in a " No Social Distancing At All" sort of way. And I thought ..any minute now he'll tell them to move over a bit ... but no .... they just barged on, and I (me) had to sidestep sharpish into the reed-bed, which is a lovely environment for birds but not for me.... my footwear rapidly filled with water in a non-reverse-able sort of way. ... and they were all totally silent, as if they were going to a funeral. ( I've got quite a list of Celebrity Birders .... I was once very startled to encounter Lee Evans , near-naked as he often is, and he was rather aggressive for some reason or other. I think he was blaming me for somehow shooing away some rare bird or other, which was a bit preposterous seeing as I had only just got out of the car. ) Anyway, I knew something that that Celebrity Birder didn't know ... him and his gloomy entourage were going to see nowt ! Because the pools were all dry as dust ! And almost birdless !! 1 Heron. That's about it. Ha ! More Good News .... when I got back to the cafe, THERE WAS NO SIGN OF DODGY ! I was so chuffed that I had a Celebratory Magnum to celebrate his absence. So .. some appropriate music ...... well, not really ...... I just like this punchy song..... Depuis trois quarts d´heure je dérive en apesanteur
Depuis trois quarts d´heure je gravite autour de ton cœur [Refrain] : Je suis en orbite autour de ton égo-centrite Comme un satellite je navigue autour de ton mythe Je vole comme une étoile mais tu m´affoles diagonale Et je m´envole comme une étoile mais tu m´affoles diagonale Depuis trois quarts d´heure le retour s´est fait en douceur A des années-lumière et souvent la tête à l´envers [Refrain] Je vole comme une étoile mais tu m´affoles diagonale Si tu t´envoles comme une étoile si tu décolles diagonale Je vole comme une étoile mais tu m´affoles diagonale Et je m´envole comme une étoile mais tu m´affoles diagonale
