Pith & Wind -
Sorry doesn't cut it
I've got a whole raft of excuses why this month
is devoid of a P&W - actually, just the word
'devoid' makes me wince. Well, more accurately
the word 'void'. You don't really want to know,
but you can just assume that it's part of the
process of growing old and decrepit and it resulted
in a short stay in hospital and a week of extreme
discomfort. (I hear they're considering extreme
discomfort for the 2022 Olympic Games).
The good thing is that that particular episode's
over now, but the date has been set for further
investigation by a team of crack specialists,
which will inevitably mean a degree of discomfort
for me and/or the team I'm sure.
I'm filling in my time modifying the look of the
website, long overdue, and getting the new studio
up and running.
Anyway, I know sorry doesn't cut it, but I have
an idea for the August P&W and in the meantime
there's always Dick's Toolbox to masticate - and
masticating doesn't make you go blind.

Toolbox - Gardening part two
Things have appeared in the
garden and I know not what they are. Several small
rows of green fronds that grew from some sort
of tubers or bulbs that I planted some months
ago. I bought them when I thought that I was going
to obtain some new tulips only to discover that
I was a month late in getting to the tulip farm
door and the cupboard was largely bare of tulips
excepting for some strange and expensive exotic
variants. Well I bought what tulips I could afford,
as well as these other bits of vegetative matter
in brown paper bags, and toddled off home from
the Dandenongs to plant them
I actually knew what they were when I planted
them, well for at least five minutes until I threw
the little brown paper bags out with their names
and photographs printed at the top, but now they
are a mystery. And will remain so until they flower
and I find a book and, hopefully, identify them.
Alternatively, like Triffids, they could assemble
en masse in the garden one moonlit night and take
over the neighbourhood, long..
