Scarecrow on the Hill
Here I stand on the hill
Rain,wind or sun all weather
passes me by,
Farmers tweed jacket, fit only
for the birds,
Farmer grumbles years of life still
in,How right he was!
Corduroy trousers baler twine secured
legs flapping in the restless wind;
Sun arcs across spring's lengthening
days,
All around the gentle rustle of
growth,
Hedgerow Oaks habouring rooks and
crows,waiting for their moment;
Black silhouttes across the dusk
sky,maybe tomorrow?
All in a day's work.

Cyclist Dilemma
Hal. said
A line can be regarded as having
length but no breadth.
Joe who was a keen cyclist said
yes I see,
Hal replyed
That a dot is the start of a line,
with lines radiating out from the
dot;with the dot travelling around
the perimeter of the spokes,
Joe said
that's the shape of a wheel,
Hal said,
If I now make a framework of lines,
in the shape of bike,turning it
90degres it would dissappear.
Joe said
I see
Hal said
Well watch out when you turn the
corner on your bike!!

Is anyone interested in CP/M on the
BBC? I have access to Z-80
co-processors made by Acorn, Torch and
Technomatic. I have nearly all the
original discs and manuals. I also have
a lot of general CP/M material.
I hope to get together with other
members to provide a few articles for
8BS as well as programs for the
library.
