I came across this in the spring 1963 issue of The Countrymman and thought it rather appropriate.
(Hope I follow Scalybacks tutorial OK).
Roads and Lanes>br<
Roads are always mindful of a purpose,>br<
Have places and objectives on their mind.>br<
Lanes are like a dreamers thoughts, like love>br<
That reaches in no certainty to find,>br<
But full of quiet hope. Roads are impatient>br<
With inefficiency. Lanes love to wind.>br<
Roads stream across the continent and race>br<
By bridge and tunnel to their journeys end,>br<
Speeding the restless millions on their way.>br<
But lanes go sauntering along the bend>br<
Of streams you know; in places you remember>br<
With poignant love, await you like a friend.>br<

Roads and Lanes
Roads are always mindful of a purpose,
Have places and objectives on their mind.
Lanes are like a dreamers thoughts, like love
That reaches in no certainty to find,
But full of quiet hope. Roads are impatient
With inefficiency. Lanes love to wind.
Roads stream across the continent and race>br< By bridge and tunnel to their journeys end,
Speeding the restless millions on their way.
But lanes go sauntering along the bend
Of streams you know; in places you remember
With poignant love, await you like a friend.,BR> R.H. Grenville

Sorry paul, I didn't manage to get to your video. Typed all the info in but got "Page not found". Probably my fault. I was looking forward to seeing it an' all.

Thanks Beezabryan, don't think that will work on my tablet.
Just had a try but can't highlight. Probably one of tablets limitations?
Wilf.
