HELLO THERE HERE I AM AGAIN IT DOESN'T SEEM THAT LONG.
SINCE LAST YEAR ROUND ABOUT THIS TIME I WAS TAKING PICTURES ON.
THE VILLAGE GREEN AND GARDENS JUST UP THE ROAD FROM ME.
SO I'M GOING THERE ONCE AGAIN TONIGHT AS THE FUNS BACK AFTER TEA..
OF THIS YEARS SCARECROW SHOW MY FRIENDS ABOUT 40 I'M TOLD IN ALL.
SCARECROWS WILL BE IN EVERY GARDEN OF ALL SHAPES LARGE AND SMALL.
I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO MY EVENINGS OUT THIS WEEK TO DO..
A LITTLE BIT OF SNAPPING ON MY CAMERA TO SHOW YOU. HE-HE.
I HAD A LOVELY OUTING LAST YEAR AND THE WEATHER IT WAS FINE.
THE SCARECROWS THEY WERE BRILLIANT AND I BET THEY ARE THIS TIME.
ALL HAND MADE BY LOCALS TO TRY AND RAISE SOME CASH.
FOR OUR LOCAL LIFEBOAT WHEN THEY HAVE TO DASH.
TO DO THOSE RESCUES EVERY DAY UPON THAT PERILOUS SEA.
A VERY WORTHY CAUSE I'M SURE YOU'LL ALL AGREE WITH ME.
IT DOESN'T SEEM TWO MINUTES SINCE I ENTERED LAST YEARS RHYME.
WHEN MANY J/LAND FRIENDS HAD NOT SEEN ANYTHING OF THIS KIND.
IT'S BEEN AROUND A FEW YEARS NOW AND SEEMS A POPULAR THING..
UP AND DOWN THE COUNTRY AND VISITORS IT DOES BRING.
LAST YEAR A MIXED SELECTION I FOUND THEM ALL SUCH FUN.
THIS YEARS THEME IS FAMOUS PEOPLE CAN YOU GUESS THIS ONE.. HE-HE
FOR SOME OF YOU NEW TO MY JOURNAL I WOULD LIKE TO SAY.
MANY ARE MADE BY SMALL CHILDREN DOWN THIS VILLAGE WAY.
THERE IS A LOCAL COMMUNITY HUT WHERE THEY CAN GO AND MEET.
TO LEARN HOW TO MAKE A SCARECROW AND SHOW THEM ON THERE STREET.
LOTS OF COMMUNITY SPIRIT WHEN YOU VISIT TO LOOK ROUND.
SO FRIENDLY ARE THE VILLAGES A DELIGHT TO MEET IV'E FOUND.
NOWADAYS COMMUNITY SPIRIT THERES NOT A LOT OF THIS.
IN OUR TOWNS AND CITY'S IT'S SOMETHING LOTS DO MISS.
SO WHEN I GO TO OUR SCARECROW SHOW IT TAKES ME BACK IN TIME.
WHEN FRIENDS AND NEIGHBOURS WERE ALL ONE NO VANDALISM OR CRIME .
WE ALL HELPED ONE ANOTHER AND WELCOMED FOLKS OUR WAY.
NOT LIKE IN THIS AGE NOWADAYS THINGS ARE NOT THE SAME TODAY.
BUT IN THIS LITTLE VILLAGE AS I SAY THEY ARE SO NICE.
EVERYONES SO FRIENDLY AND NOT AT ANY PRICE.
MY FAVOURITE SCARECROW LAST YEAR ROLPH HARRIS WITH HIS BRUSH.
WELL MY FRIENDS I'LL HAVE TO GO NOW SORRY I HAVE TO RUSH.
I'LL BE POSTING ONCE AGAIN ON ALL THE SCARCROWS THERE THIS TIME.
AROUND THE BACK END OF NEXT WEEK HERE IN " MY SIMPLE RHYME"
GIVE GENEROUSLY TO THE LIFEBOAT PLEASE !!!!
WHENEVER YOU CAN THEY DO A MARVELOUS JOB.
( One of the most famous being the great storm of 1871 which lashed the east coast
of England.The storm saw the loss of over 30 ships and 70 lives.The lifeboat rescued 16 people from three wrecked vessels.)
