I don't know who took the photos, but as they say, only in America.....

O, Jenny's a' weet,[A] poor body,
Jenny's seldom dry:
She draigl't[B] a' her petticoatie,
Comin thro' the rye!
Chorus:
Comin thro' the rye, poor body,
Comin thro' the rye,
She draigl't a' her petticoatie,
Comin thro' the rye!
Gin[C] a body meet a body
Comin thro' the rye,
Gin a body kiss a body,
Need a body cry?
(chorus)
Gin a body meet a body
Comin thro' the glen,
Gin a body kiss a body,
Need the warl'[D] ken?[E]
(chorus)
Gin a body meet a body
Comin thro' the grain;
Gin a body kiss a body,
The thing's a body's ain.
(chorus)
Ev'ry Lassie has her laddie,
Nane, they say, have I,
Yet all the lads they smile on me,
When comin' thro' the rye.

working in majorca
It does not look very hot in the photos, but trust me, it was. All went well and l am now pretty damn brown, although l am also peeling a bit (Damn!). I would like to say it was hard work, but it was not too bad and l managed to get a lot of reading done and also listened to a few things on the old ipod. It was the second time l have been to Sa Coma with work, but it will probably be the last for a while, as there are plenty of other places to see. I was away for eight days, so it is good to be back home again, back to staying up late, the bleeding rain, idiot animals and the FPO. Back at work again today, but not long until the weekend (l've got a long weekend off) and not long until we are off to Portugal for a personal holiday at the end of August. Here's counting....

johan huibers building a replica ark - 2012 olympics
A Dutch self employed carpenter, Johan Huibers, has been making a full sized version of Noah's ark http://today.msnbc.msn.com/id/43492787/ns/today-today_people/t/meet-man-whos-re-creating-noahs-ark/), after previously making one that was half size (http://creation.com/one-man-and-a-vision-johan-huibers-ark-builder-in-netherlands). Only stuffed animals are on board (apart from some chickens), but it looks impressive. It should be sailing up the Thames for the 2012 Summer Olympics if all goes according to plan. There must be some serious money involved in it all (the half sized one was open for tourists).
