We always love to hear from you, and it’s great to see what a creative bunch you are. A customer on the Isle of Mull sent us this brilliant fun verse. We hope you enjoy it as much as we did, and if you want to collect those all important raindrops for watering the garden at a later date, take a look at this clever super slim Water Butt .
Perfectly designed to fit neatly into a corner, this water butt is only £33.99 including delivery to your door
It rained and rained and rained and rained
The average was well maintained
And when our fields were simply bogs
It started raining cats and dogs
After a drought of half an hour
There came a most refreshing shower
And then the queerest thing of all
A gentle rain began to fall
Next day ’twas pretty fairly dry
Save for a deluge from the sky
This wetted people to the skin
But after that the rain set in
We wondered, what’s the next we’d get
As sure as fate we got more wet
But soon we’ll have a change again
And we shall have
A drop of rain.

Love Your Environment!
My great great newphew was staying with me for the day and we were talking about some teaching I was going to do with some children around allotment gardening and he came up with this poem:
Tomatoes are red
blueberries are blue
growing your veg
is good for you
He has won a poetry competition and so I think it seems to come naturally to him, isn’t it great! He is 10.
