Just reminding you all of my way of knowing " when are things in full swing." Or if you like, when Spring has well and truly Sprung. It's when you manage to get Swallow, House Martin and Swift in the same binocular view. Last year was terrible by that measure ... the Swallows just didn't turn up !! Ouch. Anyway, here's a super-relevant song ............. by La Bien Querida She's wearing a constellational skirt, the bass player has flames coming out of his right ear, and the guitar player is playing an F chord. Maybe F sharp, it's hard to tell, and the drummer seems to be using a thin stick of seaside rock as a drumstick. A whacky lot, these musicians. But not half as mad as us lot .....
When Spring has well and truly Sprung and Swallow, Swift and Martin fly and life is strong in heart and lung to see all three in't bins I try. It's not as easy as you think the sodding things, they whizz around and come and go in a half a wink the little beggars can't be found. Your bins get heavier by the min your neck feels like its going to snap stuff this for a lark, you're thinking this Spring thing's all a load of crap. Then as you're just about to flee For half a sec they're in your sights You've done it, the "Essential Three" Spring's here at last, and its delights ! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I thank you, dear readers, for putting up with all this nonsense. Here's the link to what I wrote about all that last spring ... 110-the-big-three-at-last.html
