Missing being in my garden :(

Gotta love this British Summertime :)
Thought I'd share something I made years ago, can't remember if I was blogging when I made this, but I'm bored so your getting it any way :D
It is a concertina/accordion book I made for fathers day. The image is my fav pic of my dad "Johnny Brown" bailing hay circa 1962(he is the one on the hay rick wearing a cap) 
I think it was the first "poem book" I made, and I wrote how he spoke, with a thick Yorkshire accent :D 

"Mary, Mary,
Quite contrary,
How does your 
Garden grow?"

"Wi  'oss muck n graft!
What's up!
Are ya daft?"

"Ask Johnny Brown,
E'll tell thee so!"

...and that is a pick of my dad, asleep on the bench in my garden in 2002 :D
