Midnight Gardeners

[smokingboot]

Someone has planted four saplings out the back. They sit on the little hillock which looks out on the playing fields; When they are grown, they'll block the view of the houses over the way, but we'll still see the regular insanity of football practice, cricket practice, rounders practice, dog exercising, metal detection and golf that keeps the local community entertained.

Last night I went to bed, no trees. This morning I got up, trees. Who is planting them and why do they do it in the middle of the night?

It is in my grubby little hands.

I am scared to note that the cover was designed by a Mr Stephen Segal.

You had no idea about his artistic side? Don't you remember his moving speech at the end of 'On Deadly Ground'?

Thank you for telling me about this, I'm so scared! And where the hell is my copy, I keep asking the strange and smiling stars?
