Please come along and support our wonderful Seasonal Celebration in its 12th year
and now held in the beautiful Bridport Community Orchard.
If you want to volunteer, bake a cake or simply want to know more please reply to this message.
Find attached a poster with all the relevant info.
If you can print it out to display in your front window/village notice board/school/car window
in fact if you can display it anywhere it would be a great help.
Please note that there is no apple ID this year (David needs the break)
But he will be holding a short apple tree surgery for anyone wanting advice in looking after their trees.

All the Best

Away time

I have not been anywhere exotic..but immersed myself in drama..escaping the recording of random..self absorbed thoughts..in favour of the alpha wave narcotic that technology affords..Ah but..I have been writing poetry..

I wonder if the computer screen gives off alpha waves too..maybe I’m just an addict that moved onto the hard stuff…

But honestly I’d rather be sitting in a tree..what waves do they give off? whatever they are..can’t get enough of them..once I’m out there..I don’t want to go home..solution is I think a tree house but with my dodgy knee it will have to be no more than 4 feet off the ground.

Seeing the dawn

I’ve spent about 16 hours over the last 2 nights writing up a management plan for the town orchard ( I hate being a perfectionist),  sending off poems to a prestigious poetry competition, and watching the odd interview with Hugh Jackman during my tea breaks. …..it was like a long haul flight with no inhouse ammusement ( although Hugh was funny).  My legs were swollen and my behind aching..I had to give up when my toes started to tingle…visions of deep vein thrombosis hurried me to bed….but not before I went outside to see the dawn..all brand new and crisp with the evening primrose milky yellow..shouting..I didn’t know it was also an insomniac….
