Rescued panda gives birth to twins <> Let’s Tango! <> Poppy Love!
07/07/2008 by admin.
Readers of The Haymakers Survey will know the significance of 7 July in the story in helping to bring the ‘action now on nature’ message to the world. They’ll also know of the specific role played by Sir Peter Scott, founder of the WWF and designer of the panda emblem used by the charity. Our story also features two identical characters - Ben Whittingbury and Captain Richard Lewin.
Curious then that a 12 year old Giant Panda, rescued from a recent quake zone in China, has given birth to twins. They’re the first pandas to be born in captivity in 2008. Here’s the video. Warning - high cuteness factor!

Meanwhile couples in London have today tangoed in silence to promote a sense of ‘compassionate togetherness’ . Wearing headphones as they danced on seven bridges and seven railway stations, it reminded Ben and Julia of their silent tango to Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds, as recorded in our story. Shall we dance…

Maybe some were dancing in memory of lost loved ones, for it seems the spectacular sight of red poppy fields are becoming a rare-sight in Britain. Numbers have declined dramatically over the past century because of the wildspread use of weedkillers. Conservation charity, Plantlife, say, “It’s very sad poppy fields have become such a rarity, as they have provided the inspiration for many famous paintings.” The plant is synomous with remembrance as thousands grew on disturbed ground near the trenches during World War I.

Poet’s unrequited love dies!
17/04/2008 by admin.
One of the heroines of modern English poetry, Miss J. Hunter Dunn, has died. She featured in ‘A Subaltern’s Love Song’ a poem of enduring appeal by John Betjeman; who went on to become poet laurette. Although written in 1941 to celebrate their engagement, their love was never fulfilled. In 1965, Joan Hunter Dunn spoke glowingly of the moment that Betjeman told her he had written a poem about her, and how the knowledge brightened the drab war time days.
The opening verse reads:
“Miss J. Hunter Dunn, Miss J. Hunter Dunn, Furnished and burnish’b by Aldershot sun’.
An anagram of ALDERSHOT reads EARTH SOLD!
Here’s an image associated with Miss J Hunter Dunn, capturing Betjeman’s idealised vision. “Love-thirty, love-forty, oh! weakness of joy.”
