Ladybird

..Security at an entrance passage way to a house in Westgate. Lets hope it doesn't catch fire.

Ladybird Books
..originated in my teenage childhood town of Loughborough in 1914, published by Wills and Hepworth, but left the town in 1998 under Pearsons ownership. Their Managing Director used to live just down the road from us and drove a Jaguar. Funny the things that you remember.

The Ladybird by Enid Blyton
Ladybird, you’re very neat
From tiny head to little feet,
I like your coat of red and black,
I like your clean and shining back.
Do you polish it each night
To make it shine so gay and bright,
Or do you keep a tiny fay
Who rubs it up for you each day?
Beneath your shiny back there lie
The gauzy wings with which you fly,
You’re spreading them – oh please don’t go,
There’s such a lot I want to know.
Your house is burning, do you say?
Ah, well, of course, you mustn’t stay!
