And the birds are singing, getting it together in their bright clours-it all reminds me that the world is a fantastic place, full of life and colour. It also reminds me that there is more to life than mans worries and concerns. I just feel that people shouls have more time with nature and les time shopping or working in shops. The economy isn't everything.

As the poet said "Oh to be in England now that Spring is here" and so we are, and it is excellent. It is great to be alive on days such as this. A very Happy Summer to you all.

I WANDERED lonely as a cloud
That floats on high o'er vales and hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host, of golden daffodils;
Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.
Continuous as the stars that shine
And twinkle on the milky way,
They stretched in never-ending line
Along the margin of a bay: 10
Ten thousand saw I at a glance,
Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.
The waves beside them danced; but they
Out-did the sparkling waves in glee:
A poet could not but be gay,
In such a jocund company:
I gazed--and gazed--but little thought
What wealth the show to me had brought:
For oft, when on my couch I lie
In vacant or in pensive mood, 20
They flash upon that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude;
And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils.
1804.

I wandered lonely to the pub- and soon engaged in social intercourse with my fellow men; and not a word was said about the forthcoming election. I then repaired to my garden to enjoy the spring weather. This is merrie England as it should be!
