squeaky notes and a right racket

Iz fluting and bodhran practice session, On my own, Hello... anyone out there...?

Moron Iz scrappy music videos, coming soon...

A notice dropped down asking if I would like to have my videos enhanced. They come out quite dark. "What's wrong with dark ?", thinks I. The image of little me isn't the point of the posting.I make the videos to help monitor my practice. they are basically audio recordings. Boring garden tours look like coming soon, I will have some better exposé / presentation.Somewhere I can put music without my scruffy image distracting. Edited highlights of idle chatter a meandering walk around the Izdom of Iz with threadbare melodies. It will happen but don't hold your breath. This is a busy time. I am off out now to sow the last of the spuds and plant a couple of poitti marron, not sure of spelling, squash iz wot. There's another video near ready I'll post it after I've done a bit outside. I.

Spring welcome in the Izdom...

Straight down the middle...

There's plenty going on. We take pleasure in the smallest detail.

First leaves and catkins on the young walnut tree.

Rooting gooseberry bushes...

First pick of rhubarb is already gone. 

 Sowed runner beans today, two kinds, one Scarlet Emperor has bright red flowers the other, no name,has red and white flowers. I have been given a stock of yet another runner bean variety with blue flowers. I'll give you a look when they are up and ready. Anne-So transplanted Butternut squash amongst the sweet corn. More later...

second cup

Hear what a second cup can do...

Bodhran, Drumsong, Practice session,Iz Music.

Trump appears to have discovered Obama's legacy...

The "do what thou wilt" option. Not the action that makes any nation Great. A war of aggression sponsored by Saudi money.I guess America is so broke it has to sniff  around the monarchist feeding troughs. Are the modern day American Republicans merely mercenaries to monarchist cause?  Ironic innit? When do we hear news of a lasting peace anywhere. Will America ever embrace the notion of universal civilization,I doubt it. It wouldn't sell many movies. Brainless muscle flexing worldwide earns zero kudos and no respect. Assad is the good guy in the current crisis. It is time the New Worlders went home and start to scrape some of the shit off their own shoes.
Moron this later.

Relating to patrimony over nationhood.

It's the mud 'n' stuff and things that grow. It's where the water comes from and where it goes. What happens to it on the way. How do we accomodate it?  Our bit of terrestrial responsibility is gradually being coaxed back from the verge of slavery and inevitable extinction. The cabbages seem happy, the garlic looks more like a patch of leeks. Herself has just got a pile of newly shorn wool to clean and card.I think I will make a Rhubarb crumble tonight. Anne-So can make the custard. What a perfect combination .  The Broad beans and the carrots are showing, onions and shallots too. Two rows of peas looking flush. No sign of parsnips yet. I got another four rows of spuds in, another kilo left.  I'll sow some in a bit of rough ground, any spare can occupy the compost heap. It gave good result last season.

  

It's green allright ...    

 The fruit bushes promise more buckets of currants than last year. The peach, plum and pear blossom is just fading, Jean Gerrard's cherry tree looks like a firework in the moonlight. Early strawberries are just started to flower. I hope we can keep the peony happy it has about 15 buds, the ants are really busy. What else?  Tons else... 

Long winded Soundbites is on the sidebar. I will fumble along and figure out how to post my music. I a Im looking for a good player and free hosting. There are scores of old recordings waiting to be heard, the best is yet to come. I will keep doing till I drop off my perch. You'd never take the time to listen on the street,I'm giving you a second chance.  I. WAZIR

  

Way back then, I Wazir

I'll tidy up later...Excuse the mess.
