Eccentric Man - Groundhogs (Revisited)

 My chest is a 36, my overcoat is for a 42.
My trousers end 6 inches from the ground, 3 inches from my shoe,
Tied up with a piece of string and held together with fish-bone glue.

 Call me an Eccentric Man, I don't believe I am!

No one said being of 'no fixed abode', a 'tax exile' and 'without possesions' was going to be easy but the truth of the matter is the ramifications are already creeping up on me. Unfortunately, after a fantastic 5 months, it is now becoming clear that there are things that 'must' be done rather than doing just what the hell I like. To that end I fear the Blog is going to have to take some of the brunt as on the face of it there will be little time to publish a 'daily' post or for that matter find material. As from today (and hopefully for a limited time only) it will become more of a periodic on an 'as and when' basis, or simply one 'weekly' issue. Wednesday's have historically seen the highest number of readers, so at the very least we should be able to publish on that day.

Anyroadup, since my return there has been opportunity for a couple of 'birding' forays which have been moderately successful with

 If ever I want to I can have the comfort of my country home.
But until that time I'm quite content to have walls made of gravestones,
  A carpet of moss, a ceiling of sky and a brown rat for a watch-dog.

My bed is a park bench and my sheet and blankets are newspaper pages.
The people think I'm crazy, but I know I'm wiser than all the sages,
'Cos I have money they think that I'm a fool for doing what I do, but I know it's right.
Call me an Eccentric Man, I don't believe I am!
