History of the Lullaby I sing with Olli Kin

Image
I've been searching for information on the Lullaby I sing to Olli Kin which was one my mother sang to me and taught me.  The original lyrics are: Lyrics to Lullaby Go to sleep, little brother Peter Go to sleep, little Peterkin Mother is within, she will bake a cake  For her Peterkin, when he shall awake  Go to sleep, Little brother Peter Go to sleep, Little Peterkin  I just modified it for Olli Kin in my YouTube Video: How To Get Babies and Toddlers To Sleep With A Simple Lullaby As we drove in the car a few days ago, he started singing it, at 22 months Olli hasn't got all the words but his timing, pace and tuning are already very good, which isn't surprising I've sung it to him thousands of times, and nearly fell asleep myself in the process.  The other night I was having difficult getting off so I sang it silently to myself and fell quickly to sleep. I wonder if they still teach this Lu...

Amazing Huge Circular Fungus

Image
I was recently came across this at a school which is closed for the summer holidays and COVID-19 in the UK. This huge possibly tree fungus has gone unmolested due to COVID-19 and has grown into a perfect almost circular flower with almost a yard or a metre across with such intricate and amazing patterns. I’ve tried identify the fungus, but all the pictures I have found show smaller plants, if fungus is even a plant, but this for the UK is stunning. I’m so happy to have been able to catch it before it becomes damaged or dies, If anybody knows what it is and whether it normally grows so huge and so perfectly please let me know. Thanks Malcolm @FIXED1T P.S. This unmolested unknown fungus due to COVID-19 almost circular flower 1 yard or a 1 meter wide with intricate amazing patterns I haven’t managed to ident it just happy to catch it before it dies mycologists what is it?

Slow Moving UFO Heading Past The Moon

Image
Just as I was about to set up my 80mm Skywatcher telescope to take some astrophotography shots of the Moon, Jupiter and Saturn last night some weird #UAP or Unidentified Aerial Phenomena previously called Unidentified Flying Object or #UFO decided to travel across the sky and past the moon. It looked remarkably like Mars does through a telescope and was travelling faster than a plane. The only thing I had to hand was my iPhone 7 plus which isn't good for night photography. Of course I could have taken out my camera flight case from under the telescope lenses flight case and change the batteries but by which time it would have been gone. I now understand why these images are often so poor, even the moon looks like a torch light but it isn't. 10 mins later and I'd have been able to nail it. I have no idea what it was, we used to get lanterns (but this was different) and they've been banned for years since a major fire in a plastics recycling centre was caused by one...
