                  I was spreadeagled in those weeds again by the hard shoulder at the wrong end of the L & W road...

                  Good puzzle, cunning solving
                  "...the isle is full of noises,
                  Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
                  Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
                  Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

                    Are you having a tease? Am I the Fool on the Hill here? I was nowhere near teasing out that answer; I was just plodding along the B842, getting mightily side-tracked along the way.

                    I have a hectic day ahead. Please don't ultracrepidate me, would the uberous mercs please set a U?

                                This welcome unseasonal sunshine that lured me into the garden this morning has kept people out....or is it lack of interest.
