The other day, son-in-law Bard and I went sawing wood. With great care (and an eye on the Health and Safety handbook) we used our sawbench/splitter and loaded the bucket on the JCB. The old David Brown tractor purred away on the mild December day. It was one of many warms twixt tree and fireplace and on such a mild day the sweat dripped under our protective gear…
Son-in-law John,
Sawing along,
We’re loading a bucket,
Without saying “f*ck it!”
While singing this old-fashioned song:
“How much wood,
Could a wood-cutter cut,
If a wood-cutter could cut wood?
It would be as much wood,
As a wood-cutter could,
When a wood-cutter should cut wood!”
And then went home for tea!
