that was funny - i broke in by accident looking for a marked (ordnance survey map) pathway.... wandered the whole place - but i don't cheat, i never paid the entry fee - even if the price paid 50m below...my my that chair - symbolic but ..a decade the lass and i had one...of course the tackiest thing in the world is a camping chair. BUT a bit of spare cash 5 years ago... why not have a look if thety do them on ebay - having often scoured the shops... as the ten year iused one so so lovingly worn out...
and bingo!
i was saving thjat to give to my daughter one day - she would remember it as it was THE THING THAT DEFINED US...
ACCIDENTAL CAP..
anyway forget all that - just the other side of thje creek - i like this creek! this side so much quieter ..on holiday hahh hahh..
far faster upload.
oh yes the 'waste' - in fact my schism was always planned. SORROWFULLY.... YEARS I WOULD SEE AS A REALLY GOOD ROTTEN OLD WOOD RESTORER oops done it again..no time to fix
yes fixing... repairing old rotting shed roofs, fences...
and much more else..it was the waste... BECAUSE ALL I (USED TO - NO POINT NOW the Tolle brigade - by the way i have three wise women - the superbrained psychologist - though very mermaid too last eve... ok British, speaking to my recorder about yes how he is seriously ill and has done so so much damage to once sane women..)
simple - all thde Waitrose-Tiolles invade ... none can actually cooperate with a bloke in the land... never xseen it happen. Even when they are left at home hubby still belting back and forth lONDON ((SHE LIES THEY DONT NEED)
OOPS IGNORE ALL CAPS..
to fix and not WASTE old fencing etc..a woman CAN do just as well as a man ... though i have yet to see one follow through "i can do that myself.." well i have the tools!
one must be day in and out around the land... often theswe are two people jobs some of the time - moving around old gates.. or holding posts (as i would do for years with my beloved old attachment Ralph the first...)
But there is also chat..banter..or if one were lucky enough to find one witha brain who knew what 'hiaeth' opr ascetic meant...(Portuguese so so much more alive - it is NOT finished..yet)even a really good chat about something that isnt narcissistic bullshit, like who is more narcissistic..
Arendt! Oedipus... what are the great films.. blah di blah...
nope... not only do few blokes wish to be slaving away day after day alone... Mrs Good Life.. lasted about 3 weeks...
It is also the actual physical waste. The fences, old veghicles... so mucgh i have seen ..skipped.. that two people diligently working away at least some of the time.. can fix, reuse.. save money by keeping going rather trhan buy a new motor every 10 years...
there is far far more eco waste caused by the complete inability for 99% of small scale land or even old wooden hulks ... out of the water for months or years... because it takes a team of 2 + day in and out to keep it al;l ship shape..and even FUN!
nope i saw that nearly impossible in ordinary rural laqnds over the years...
so that is the true schism. Started with Mister rural... though i never got to write about it due it seems 100% inability to ever be human and mean anything if on The Book..
speaking of which. relating.. the art of..
Lietature was for that.
And great drama.
UK was finished i knew when i heard this on the wireless - what love sounds like... simply the best - reality... life sucks and we suck at it but two heaqds are better than one - simply extraordinary writing and performance...
i still remeber every pause...i knew then it was teh ANSWER..
but second time of hearing, phoning up the man himself - we chatted him on the tube... he didnt actually egt what i was talking of when i said "peter i have listened almost every 2.15 radio 4 play for 30 years its how i educated myself..intuil they all went self pitying wank 5ish years ago..mate your piece [Mike walker excepted] ... was what we needed all along - genius... nothing like it for 10 years.."
he didnt even care to remember really his great work never mind tghink it wasw in deed important...
