Dear Eagle-eyed mates,
Some of you may remember that in ‘A Midsummer Tights Dream’
I hilariously (in my opinion) mentioned that my mum and sister
would not let me have the dead rabbit in Cain’s hand wave its
paw bye-bye to Tallulah.
I said at the time (and I’m not wrong) that it is a tip-top comedy idea.
But oh no – my so-called family said it would make me seem ‘childish’ – which clearly I am not. Anyway, I hid this book from them so
the crying rabbit is in, see here.
So ha ha ha ha for calling me childish.
Peace.
To my Family Tree and my Tree Sisters and Tree Brothers and
to the various saps – I mean – saplings. Also to the naughty
Skipton Flossies (Katie and Eve).
And of course to the Tree Doctors with their Tree pruning,
Tree mulching and their Tree hugging: Gillie, Lizzie, Tara,
Elorine, Clare, Cassie (actually officially a sap) and Gillon xxxx
