The Ghost Writer was whinging when he got
here tonight to see us, he says he was trying to get out of the car park of the
big grey office but it involves crossing the traffic that turns right. However
at the time all the mums from the school run were in the queue and all looked
the other way staying bumper to bumper so he could not get across them to turn
left. In the end he gave up and went the other way out and did a detour. He is not a fan on mums on school runs and
says they are ********** rude ***** ******** selfish ****** drivers, but to
make matters worse once he did get out of town (20mins to do a quarter of a
mile) he got stuck behind a really slow car. Well it was slow until he
indicated to overtake, then it would speed up from 25 to 55 then at the
slightest bend or if traffic was coming the other way they panicked and slowed
down to 25 again. Still he is here now and grumbling……. A bit, OK a lot.
Anyway we were all sitting
drinking our cups of tea as the Ghost Writer stuck pins in a wax doll of a mum
on a school run who was turning right when a huge big bird flow over head, We
think it might have been a red kite but if it was it was a damn big one, no
really big. I was running about with the camera trying to get a picture of it
but not really with much luck. It appears the best way to take pictures of
animals and birds in the wild are in a camouflaged hide with a huge zoom lens
and lots of patience. Not running about with a little digital camera with no
zoom and everyone shouting its behind
the cherry tree o no sorry the big black horse Ah…… O no it has gone behind the queue of school mums who are all screaming
because one of them appears to have huge pins sticking out of their head and
the bird has run off with little serendipity their daughter. I never did
get a proper picture of the monster bird just one from miles away I tried to
blow-up the picture like in the movie (again) but sadly it looks like a crow
and it was a huge beast. The good news though is the Ghost Writer has cheered
up.

We are lucky enough to have a falcon take up roost around the campsite. It seems to have scared off the crows but we still have the buzzards which is nice.
ReplyDeleteOh and we have a bona fide rock start on site as well (but i dont think the falcon belongs to him)
Well on both items I would like to say well done, I am sure the campers prefer falcons to crows. And Rock Stars stopping are always good for business (I think). Provided they are the quiet modest ones who are not out their heads and running about at three in the morning shouting .....WHERE THE ****** ******** **** ***** HAS MY FALCON GONE
DeleteThe only thing worse then mums doing the school run, is mums doing the school run in their 4x4.
ReplyDeleteYes I quite agree but it appears that is most of them....At least we are in the country here so the tyres get a bit muddy not sure what the excuse is for them in the great Metropolis (thats 4X4s not school run mums).....
