I mentioned a while ago that I have a new sewing project. It has been on hold while the family have been visiting but today I have done a bit more. It’s another patch for Redruth’s storycoat and is representing a war grave in St Euny graveyard and a story that was told in our show, Until the Day Break in 2017. I’m showing the stone as it was in May that year with primroses and bluebells at its foot. It’s very small and on soft material as this one, along with lots of other smaller ones, will be in the folds of the coat. 
I used to read this delightful poem with my Year 7 classes. We loved it then and I love it now. I have always thought it was by Spike Milligan but on looking it up I discover that it is by Jez Alborough, published in 1991.
Go on, start the epidemic!
