Bell-ringing, AA Milne poetry and Book Four begun

Gretel Le Maître Ponders Life and Loss with Bede and other guests

Good evening. The following salad of words show that AI has a long way to go. AI has put together a ‘blog’ to go with this episode and I paste it here for your wry amusement 🤨😄
Have you ever pondered the whimsical adventures that a simple request for butter could spark? In tonight’s episode, we are swept away by the charming sounds of the Sherbourne Abbey Bells, setting the scene for an evening of literary delight with the beloved poems of A.A. Milne. While contemplating the timing of exploring "Under the Greenwood Tree," we find ourselves instead captivated by the royal simplicity in "The King's Breakfast" and the humorous journey for a perfect slice of bread. With a touch of nostalgia and a sprinkle of humor, this poem reminds us of the delight found in everyday simplicity.
As the bells continue their melodious practice, we plunge into the mischievous world of "Disobedience," where young James James Morrison Morrison embarks on an adventure filled with delightful whimsy and endearing lessons. His escapades with his mother offer not only laughter but also a gentle reminder of the timeless joys these tales bring. So, sit back, relax, and let the poetry of Milne whisk you away to a world where imagination reigns supreme and every word is a portal to laughter and nostalgia. This episode promises a cozy escape into the heart of storytelling, ideal for a tranquil evening at home.
