Sorry Lizzie,
i just couldn't resist it.
So if Grockie is the one in the Leopardskin, that must make the front one Kevin.
Actually i haven't seen him on here for a while, hope he is alright.

Well the eggs have been consumed and thoroughly enjoyed and then this poem sprang to mind.
Old Herbaceous
The mists be on the river bed,
the roses all be gone.
And here be i, about to die,
wi' harvest comin' on.
Dear Lord, i've traipsed some weary miles,
i'll be main glad to rest awhiles.
The folk'll soon be in the fields,
a gettin' in the grain,
For most of those, the time you've chose,
be awkerd, in the main,
Though not as bad, tis sure, for they
as be a workin' by the day.
September be a better month,
for all the carter men.
And when i die don't signify,
so let i bide to then.
The wagons'll be standin' by,
and there'll be time to bury i.
