This morning we were due to join a party being shown over one of the Cambridge Colleges. This proved to be a delightful and very informative visit and we are grateful to the head gardener for his enthusiastic explanation of how the gardens have been developed during his tenure, incorporating wildlife areas and a determination to make the grounds a restful place for students, post-graduates and visitors. Before we joined the visit, arranged by one of the college fellows, I wrote the following Climerick to celebrate what was going to be a new experience for us.
Please gardeners all kick up a stink,
to make our politicos think
that much hotter summers
are hideous bummers
for gardens to stay 'in the pink’.

To see earlier posted Climericks - go to the
monthly collections (list in right hand
column)starting with April 2024 and
work backwards.
