He used to stand all alone, but is slowly being swallowed up by development. Olly's favourite landmark is the 'Lego building' which is actually a huge Morrisons distribution depot. I think it' quite close to the wicker man. As for falling over, I remember being heavily pregnant and falling over outside the co-op in town. I rolled around on my back like a beetle, until a kind lady helped me up. I was mortified. I do laugh at my family when they trip up though. It always seems so funny to me.<br />Leanne xxLeannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15617604296746784414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6235841642149423068.post-42639254124547403772015-03-24T11:52:13.222+00:002015-03-24T11:52:13.222+00:00I hope you and your boy are over your bumps and pa...I hope you and your boy are over your bumps and painful scrapes CJ. Love your pics of the trees - is that mistletoe in amongst? No eclipse here in the Weald of Kent, too much thick cloud, but it was gloomy for a bit, there was a drop in temperature and a strange stillness - it seemed to spook the birds a bit. Have a good week.

They would have remembered it for the rest of their lives. I doubt very much they will remember whatever tidbit of information was being given them at that time in the classroom. And I'm sorry, but I did laugh when I read about your mishap at the park.

When we go past the willow man on the motorway it amuses me that his field has changed so much in recent years, once a lone figure and now surrounded with buildings. I expect he doesn't understand what's happened all around him!<br />We went to see the bore on Saturday night at my son's house in Newnham. Their garden is the edge of the river so we were very close. I've never seen it before and I must say I was very worried for the two men who sat on their surf boards in the water waiting for the bore to catch up with them! It did and it was spectacular! I wonder how far up the river Severn they were pushed? :)<br />Jess xxJesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17593348601123003194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6235841642149423068.post-73475846337416509232015-03-23T10:59:24.046+00:002015-03-23T10:59:24.046+00:00Oh no !

I hope both you and the littlest boy are ok. We always watch out for Willow Man when we're travelling down to Cornwall and I saw a shot of him on Broadchurch recently too. That's such a shame that the middle boy missed the eclipse. I think different schools had different ideas about whether to let the children watch. To my way of thinking, what can be more educational than learning something about the world in which we live? Madness that they didn't allow them out to watch.Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17436932004631816039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6235841642149423068.post-15999487769245749122015-03-23T09:08:19.122+00:002015-03-23T09:08:19.122+00:00Are they clumps of mistletoe in the trees?
