I need wise words, words of wisdom. There are three of them in John of the Ram's House.  The three points of wisdom are: Do not leave the old way for the new way.  Don't lodge in a house where there is an old man married to a young woman.  Be struck twice before striking once.  I found some others too. From dialect sayings of Joseph Thomas 1895: A change of work is as good as a touch-pipe.   Chânjyans a whel ew maga da avel powes. A clout is better than a hole out.  Clout ew gwell avel toll mes.  He who can't schemey...

He was a research technician, assistant to the director, and I was a technology student, with a work placement. We were married and, today, we have an anniversary. Our ruby red camellia is nineteen years old.

Have you already seen any April Fools' Day tricks? Why is there a tradition of jokes on this day? I like tradition. Somebody found an old bit of traditional Cornish at Harvard University. It's in traditional graphs. It's an englyn, perhaps. This is not a joke.

I'm happy to see the yellow celadines in the hedge - sunshine on the ground. Soon the sun will bring summer visitors to the beach. They will bring things with them - and leave them behind them. Volunteers are needed to collect broken bodyboards - a lot of plastic bodyboards are bad for the sea.

My flowers will be there tomorrow without bubbles.
