Gnomen?
Hi

Have a look at this
IN my mail this week is a letter from a Wensleydale reader who reminds me of the famous verse which records the arrival of the cuckoo:

In April, come he will,

In May he sings all day,

In June he alters his tune,

In July he prepares to fly,

In August, go he must.


Its from this page

thanks
In April I open my bill
In May I sing night and day
In June I change my tune
In July away I fly
In August go I must.

That's the version I was brought up on.
