Well, a driver at work wound his window down and informed me today
that it was going to be a poor summer.
What..another one?
Yes! And the explanation is that the rooks are nesting half way down
the trees hereabouts.
Well there we have it, gents!

The rooks not far to the south of you haven't heard as they have nested
at the very tops. Too late for them to issue an amendment and move
house.

Funny thing about regionality is that somewhere over the rainbow,
about longitude 100 or 110 in the USA -if not all of North America,
there is a sharp divide between drought and flood.

That is, during the same period the weather is sharply and rudely
distinct one side of the line from the other.

Perhaps these animals are instinctively wise enough to know where to
park their arrises.

Of course it is well known that the more mature and healthy a bird is,
the better its nesting site is likely to be. And that the
inexperienced and unhealthy ones tend to end up with the poorest
premisses.
