Friday 8th April (Mr. Kite and His Lady Migrate)


Mr. Kite looked out of his bedroom window onto the green leaves of the Lime trees. Within days the buds have burst into life to form leaves with a whole summer in front of them to absorb carbon dioxide and bring more life to the tree. Mr. Kite will not see them again until July.

With spring progressing Mr. Kite is migrating south for the spring. Today Mr. Kite and His Lady are going on tour in The Joint to 'look, listen and watch' nature in all it's glory in other places; and see things they have not seen before. The first 'hop' is just sixty miles; and a one hour trip.

Now the short hop was in fact a two hour marathon amonbst lorries, buses and other travellers; but eventually Mr. Kite and His Lady arrived at Marston Camping and Caravan Park in warm spring sunshine. To cut along story short Mr. Kite listened to a few birds watched a Grea Tit; but in the evening Mr. Kite and His Lady listened to a Dixie Land concert followed by a tipple of Thwaites Original Bitter. Cheers from a sun-drenched thirsty holiday maker on his migatory travels south.
