snow joke....
Well, just back from easter Camp.. arrived on Friday evening after work, to a camp already set up and under way... and cold.... but fun... hiked up to Bardon Hill (Leicestershire's highest point), encouraged the Scouts to build a snowman in the image of Spoon; its possible that the way things are going, it may be the last snowman they get to build... On saturday, I went into Melton Mowbray to pick up a shed for a very good friend of mine, who has agreed to possibly come on holiday with me this October.. which is nice... and carrying a shed on the roof rack of a 25 year old estate car in high winds and snow is no jioke, I can tell you.. back into camp on the saturday evening, in time for stew, and then sleep in the Alpine hut... would have been warmer in a tent! On sunday came a visit from my good friend Rob, home from the RAF, and the hike to Bardon... and today it was home.... to bed, roast roots and Brains Faggots.... tomorrow it will be time to put up the aforementioned shed.. weeks off are always so busy.... but there we are....also i've been told that i'm going out next satyrday... two friends of mine (yes.. i have friends!!!!) are insisting i go to burton on trent, the home of beer, and have a chinese meal... then go bowling (if the alley hasn't closed down!!) before going off to a bar somewhere.... I dread to think what's going to happen... but I shall put aside the fact that when I was 18 or so such a night would hold little attraction, and go for it with a positive attitude... but there we go.. my son is off to blackpool with his mum at the end of the weeek, so that gives me four days of an empty house.. but i'll find something to do.. model railway beckons... but i digress.. managed to put in ome work on my entries for bbc wildlife poetry comp and a couple of others.. based on an experience at work.. so until we find a rhyme for rythm, wisebeard salutes you!!!!!!!!!!

About Me
- Kirk Wisebeard
- Well, about me.... in the words of Gag Halfrunt, "Wisebeard's just zis guy, you know.." My official biography reads "Kirk Parsons is." Once i die,which I plan to do at some point in the future, this will become, "Kirk Parsons isn't." But for those who really want to know, the answers are all in here somewhere....
