I’m learning about electronics.  I just made this!  I followed instructions in a free e-book.

Britain From Above

“An epic journey revealing the secrets, patterns and hidden rhythms of our lives from a striking new perspective.”

This series is brilliant! And for me it’s an exciting new way of delivering TV content online: the whole series is there, but as short clips, fititng the way people tend to use the web. And they let you embed it! Time for my website to get a bit wider again; it’s gradually creeping to the edges of the screen with every new feature that I add.

Sir Eglamore – Kate Rusby

[youtube JgidfxhVAFU nolink]

Sir Eglamore was a valiant knight,
Fa la lanky down dilly,
He took up his sword and he went to fight,
Fa la lanky down dilly.
As he rode o’er hill and dale,
All armored in a coat of mail,
Fa la la-n-fa, da-n-da da-n-fa, lanky down dilly.

Out came a dragon from her den,
Fa la lanky down dilly,
That killed God knows how many men,
Fa la lanky down dilly.
When she saw Sir Eglamore,
You should have hear that dragon roar
Fa la la-n-fa, da-n-da da-n-fa, lanky down dilly.

Well, then the trees began to shake,
Fa la lanky down dilly,
Horse did tremble and man did quake,
Fa la lanky down dilly.
The birds betook them all to peep,
It would have made a grown man weep,
Fa la la-n-fa, da-n-da da-n-fa, lanky down dilly.

But all in vain it was to fear,
Fa la lanky down dilly,
For now they fall to fight like bears,
Fa la lanky down dilly.
To it they go and soundly fight,
The live-long day from more ’till night,
Fa la la-n-fa, da-n-da da-n-fa, lanky down dilly.

This dragon had a plaguey hide,
Fa la lanky down dilly,
That could the sharpest steel abide,
Fa la lanky down dilly.
No sword could enter through her skin,
Which vexed the knight and made her grin,
Fa la la-n-fa, da-n-da da-n-fa, lanky down dilly.

But as in choler she did burn,
Fa la lanky down dilly,
He fetched the dragon a great good turn,
Fa la lanky down dilly,
As a yawning she did fall,
He thrust his sword up, hilt and all,
Fa la la-n-fa, da-n-da da-n-fa, lanky down dilly.

Like a coward she did fly,
Fa la lanky down dilly.
To her den which was hard by,
Fa la lanky down dilly,
There she lay all night and roared,
The knight was sorry for his sword,
Fa la la-n-fa, da-n-da da-n-fa, lanky down dilly.
