Finlay's disappearing snowman

This is all that remains of little Finlay's homemade snowman!

In fact I thought it looked a little like Venus de Milo as I blipped it on my way to feed the hens this morning.


The greenhouse, polytunnel and vegetable garden are being to beckon and my energy returns as I look forward to another growing season in Our Five MIle World.

Caz, we are growing pea pods, just for you!

"Humidity Built The Snowman" John Prine


Does he still think about her
Why there was never really any doubt
Every time he lights a candle
Or blows a candle out
The scientific nature of the ordinary man
Is to go on out and do the best you can

I don't think that you know
That I think you don't know
That old barometer goes crazy baby
Every time it starts to snow
You won't find me walking
Round your part of town
Humidity built the snowman
Sunshine brought him down

This world is full of people
They never seem to fall
Somebody said they seen you
You hadn't changed at all
The fundamental story
Of the contemporary man
Is to walk away and someday understand

I don't think that you know
That I think you don't know
That old barometer goes crazy baby
Every time it starts to snow
You won't find me walking
Round your part of town
Humidity built the snowman
Sunshine brought him down

The scientific nature of the ordinary man
Is to go on out and do the best you can

I don't think that you know
That I think you don't know
That old barometer goes crazy baby
Every time it starts to snow
You won't find me walking
Round your part of town
Humidity built the snowman
Sunshine brought him down

Humidity built the snowman
Sunshine brought him down
Brought him down




Longing for my favourite month, May, this song by Loreena McKennitt inspires
