This week the first proper snow of the winter fell. For a while, our world was transformed. If you love snow, a boat is the perfect place to enjoy it. If you hate snow, a boat is the perfect place to escape it!

Journal entry:

“29th January Friday.

The last couple of mornings have smelt fresh.
The trees bordering the canal sharp with bird song,
not just the aural darts of warning calls
but flowing rivers of melody
entwined on the wind.

Below our feet, last summer’s oak leaves swim the flooded field.”

Episode Information

In this episode I read an extract from the early 17th century English printed volume by Nicholas Breton of the 15th century The Kalendar of Shepherds: Being devices for the twelve months.

You can read a digitised reproduction of this book, with its wonderful woodcut engravings, in the Welcome Library: The Kalendar of Shepherds: Being devices for the twelve months.

I also read an extract from Josh Billing’s Farmer’s Allminax [sic] (1870-1879) by the American humourist Henry Wheeler Shaw. You can read a digitised copy on the Project Gutenberg website: Josh Billings' Old Farmer's Allminax.
