Frozen Thames

Elizabethan Frost Fairs
Zen Ghosts
the frosty covering of a perfectly green lawn
hoar frost
magical beauty of England , the England of King Arthur and Merlin
The sun slanting at an acute angle
mystical
legend
women struggling to lead perfectly ordinary lives while surrounded by
Falstaff's raiment
the heroic
Fairy-tale land

Hey diddle diddle the cat and the fiddle
the cow jumped over the moon
the little dog laughed to see such a sight
and the dish ran away with the spoon

Autumnal
Skating pond
Puppets
The same landscape wher fiere wars are fought transformed by peacetime – Falstaff's dilemma
bonfires
all the great things about England – turning on the lights – flickering lights
Fairy land – hobbits – toad of toad hall
