betty dislocated her shoulder and something came up so that daughter did not get here cither at first we were disappoint edbut not after it turned so wel there were no easter bunnies around here cither but wc did have an easter calf i wonder why it is that easter more than an other season recalls mimones of home before i got up this morning i was dunking back to other das to mj home in eng land even before world war 1 we seemed to have an accepted pattern for easter week end in those das which hardly aried at all from one year to another those who were away came home sometimes bring ing a friend or friends friday morning wc went to a service which as children wc al ways loved the stations of the cross good friday was also the day when country folk liked to plant their potatoes so the day was a mixture of solemnity and relaxa tion on easter sunday wc generally started the day by going to the early morning service after breakfast our family of four would set out for its traditional easter sunday walk our mother did not care too much for our long walks so she would say to us you go on now and have your walk and ill have dinner waiting when you get back so we started on our crosscoun try tramp that would be anywhere from seven to ten miles our favourite walk was ryes lane a mosscovered path through the woods where tree branches met over our heads and formed a leafy arcade and it was here that wc were sure to find the first prim roses of the season as well as sweet- scented violets later the woods would be fragrant with bluebells we also watched for the little english robin much smaller than its canadian namesake and how delighted we were if we heard a cuckoo from ryes lane which was about three miles long we came to the top of a steep hill from which there was a marvellous icw of the wooded country f miles around homeward bound we passed bal- lingdon hall where queen eliza beth i had often stayed on through the village of balhngdon- cumbrnndon put the old bull tea which features in dickens pick wick papers through the church yard of all saints church built in h50 although early history men tions the chapel at ballingdon as early as 1154 in the church there is a beautiful octagonal 15th cen tury pulpit saved from destruction during the wars by being boarded up and hidden from view until dis covered by accident in 1850 tired hungry and often very dusty we arrived home quite ready to do justice to mothers dinr pefof roast beef yorkshire pudding and light dessert after dinner we more or less lazed awa the afternoon tea was at five o clock after tea some of us generally went to evening ser vice with my mother while those who were more energetic went to some church other than our own nu be to a nearby village which mrant another walk easter monday was observed as a holiday and i suppose we amused ourselves in various wavs as i dont remember any particular family affair i wonder what easter week- i ends art- like in england today
