A Poem


I dream of the sound of pelican crossings filling the air all day long,

I must have my market browsing interrupted by inane muzak song.

I long for strangers and knowing no-one as I walk around the crowded streets,

I've got to find at least 12 varieties of the latest chocolate doggy treat.

And where is the mighty ring-road talked of so long ago?

Not that it will ever get used as it's easier to trundle on through.

I want my church Big, a minster monster; but I'll never attend, they don't sing My song there.

I want to be closer to the Sea, 30 meters is too high for me.

Then three times a year when I get the notion, I can drive half as far to slap on the lotion.

I demand the right to 2nd hand CD's, tapes and videos,

With the choice of ten chippies for seafood along the presidio.

In fact there's so much I want from 'down south'.

Perhaps I should just move to Louth!

The Lincolnshire Flag

The new updated Lincs flag was chosen after a competition run by  Lincolnshire Life Magazine and BBC Lincs. It features the Fleur De Lis representing Lincoln City, the red cross of St George, the blue of the sea and skies, and the green of the land outlined with the gold of the crops.
