Popular Opinion

Never let it be said that I don't listen to others.

In fact, all day I have done little more than listen to Torquil as he complains that we didn't listen to him. He is insistent that "many people" secretly supported the blue paint-job for the door. Now as we all know there is nothing worse than "many people" who "just don't like to complain", but have one self-appointed spokesperson who likes little else.

So like a judge listening to a nagging widow, I have given in. The Moot House door will be blue. Green is definitely wrong.

  1. Have you seen the Beaker folk
    The Druids of Husborne Crawley?
    Dancing and singing and smelling flowers
    Up and about at all kinds of hours.
    I've heard they're not like you and me
    But somewhat aloof in company
    with their strange philosophy of life.
    If you should see them let us know
    Because there are some who would like to go,
    But hesitate from fear or doubt,
    Down to Husborne Crawley.
