Stone clearing with Richard Herring
Well, hello, my fan of friends, it's 11.5 a.m. on the 17th of December 2025 a.m. on the 17th of December 2025 as I record this.
Welcome to Chapter 184, St. Clairman, Richard Herring, and Wolfie,
dog. We are, for this episode only, it's chapter only. That's where chapter, chapter,
chapter, that's not, it's chapter 184, nearly at the advanced level. For this,
for this week only, we are welcoming listeners on the Rahalashtabafi. You may have missed
this podcast that I do, stone clearing. Do just Google it. There's a,
183 other chapters plus if I'm a time for Bethel for you to enjoy. But this is just a
Christmas treat for you and fans of Stone Clearing. Might get you interested in
this hobby, this ancient hobby. And if not you know, it fills up time, don't it?
The time would pass in any case, possibly less slowly actually in this case. And
Look, I'm back, I've just come up Duckett's Passage, Duckett's Passage, and back on the field.
The Stotion, the Phototion, Wolfie's doing a wee, passing the Afronomagocan, hidden away behind grass.
It's been ten months since I last came here.
I felt I'd probably just about finished the task of clearing every stone off the field,
but I've come, I found one straight away, there's loads here.
The thing is they grow back.
So even when you think you're finished,
you do have to come back to your field every now and again.
People, someone on Fess Hole, said that they would throw my photons back on to the Fetotian.
Sorry to be speaking in Anglo-Saxon, I hope the new listeners can understand.
But that doesn't matter to me because I love clearing stones,
so the more they throw back the more fun I have I've already cleared about five
six stones so there's a lot oh there's loads here someone's really been throwing these
things back because this was when I left this was clear some beauties here I'm just taking
a little hassle off out so anyway yeah we'll do a I'd love to get back to doing this
regularly I've got Wolfie the dog with me just you know life gets in the way
sometimes and you forget what your purpose is there's some
beauties here. I guess the plough she have come and really no one, you know, that's an
uncleared field soon, you know, accumulates stones. You would look at this and honestly
think no one had ever cleared a stone off it in, in our lifetime. Oh, there's a beauty out there.
I'm just going to have a look at this. It looks like it's been broken up under the clear plow just
from this angle. Oh no, so it is a complete stone. Yeah, there's some good medium-sized stones here.
You know, it's not, uh, this isn't typical of stone clearing. It's a well-cleared field.
You won't find many medium stones. You might find some tiny, tiny ones. But as I say,
I have been abnegating my response.
somewhat and there are some beauties out here and I'm very excited to be back. This is, I think
anyone who's heard any of my comedy would agree that so including is my true purpose on
this planet. And just every one of these is a medium. This is probably a small large
for new listeners. I mean this isn't the place to start. I mean we'll let you start here and I'm going to make it, this is meant to be a
intermediate level podcast, but I'm going to make it. I'm going to dumb it down a little bit for you
guys. But you really need to go back and listen from Chapter 1 onwards to properly understand what's
going on here. I mean, apart from being coated in millions of stones, the field looks pretty much
as it was when I left it. There is a crop growing here, I think, because it just weeds. Has it been
left fallow i mean this would be the perfect time to get out here yeah these look like like
weeds at the thought it was a crop maybe the crop is to come could get out here with my metal
detector if there's no crop and that used that as a cover for the oak stone stars in the distance
they're still here still patrolling stone stars in yellow coat with a what looks like an alsation dog
but they're way away and they won't be expecting me that's the thing that's
every now and again as much as it hurts you have to step away from your field
because it's more important that you survive to stone clear another day and I
felt the stone stars either the people opposed to stone clearing the kind of
person who goes on the vessel says they're chucking the stones back on the field
They are trying to stop us if they find us in the act, they are duty bound and are legally allowed to murder us in any way they see fit due to ancient bylaws.
When stone clearers were burnt at the stake, I just kicked a lovely medium large there, just into a fence post.
That looks like a stone, but it's not, it's a plastic bag, just a dirty plastic bag.
something to watch out for new new stone clears don't clear things that just look like stones check
their stones check they're not pieces of feces and i'm coming up to the brambles
regular lessons will be familiar i guess they're all of this oh watch up one into the brambles
you'll sometimes hear a clink to indicate that a stone has found another stone
Got to keep your eyes open with the stone stars here at all time.
But I am illegally hassle-hoffing across the field because I'm just seeing some beauties in the distance.
I think no one has been out here.
As is right, there are no rules to the stone clearing.
That is actually rule one of stone clearing.
Rule two is you must not clear another man's field.
That was a real shot.
Oh, I got it there. That was good.
That was a biggie.
There was some nice mediums, just medium sized stones here.
I think we might find this one's on the verge of being large.
It's very flat.
I think it was as thick as it is flat.
Oh, look at that, maybe.
That is large.
That took some effort to get out of the ground,
but that is a large stone right there.
You can tell from how breath I am.
Just trying to carry that.
I'm going to create a new cairn here with these real whoppers.
I'll take a photo of it.
That might be the photo that accompanies...
The podcast, just because that is an impressive find.
I'll put my boots in there for...
I think I managed to stop the recording there at the same time as taking that photo,
but you haven't missed anything because I noticed.
away. My boots in for comparison might be the only thing that you that you miss, but I don't
think you would have done. I will keep checking. I know the Stone Starzy had some jamming
equipment to stop people podcasting. Many people out here. I know, you know, there are Brian Bramble
in New Zealand, obviously one of the best known stone clearers. But not a good stone clearer,
not doing it for the right reasons. Doing it for the adverts. There will be some adverts on
this episode if you are listening on the rather some feed if you want to add free feed
and if you think it's wrong as i do for adverts to appear on something as pure as this then
please do head to the stone clearing excuse me just but there stone clearing um site
feed to get you all to ad free podcast uh of course we are as always sponsored by nor face
the acceptable face of fascism.
Though they have yet to pay, as for any of the free advertising,
we've given them.
So, yeah, some nice stones out here.
This is a rolling stone gathers no moss,
but a still stone and a still stotion gathers some stones.
That is...
gather some stones, for it is written and though it must be foul.
When you are sitting in your warm and Christmas homes, think of the stone clearers
out in the fields and they're clearing stones now. This is a good
referring to Malcolm on jungler who that's a
medieval reference to a guy who didn't like sound clear as Malcolm
on Jonga unusual name for a medieval person in the UK but that's not for me to
judge so we're at the corner can in the corner of the field actually over
there somewhere see if I can find it by echo location
I've passed it really, just cut the corner off a little bit and as we head up past the trees that I'm hoping one day to push over with the weight of stones.
Not so many stones in this particular place, this part is the people who've been chucking stones back on or the plough
that's not effectively found. That's always a good sign as well to the stone pyramid where they get to part the field that maybe
They've cleared to a greater depth. There's one I've managed to dig up that's gone into the trees.
Often there are quite a lot of nice big stones up in this particular area. I know it like the back of my hand, this field, every inch of it.
Even though I have no visual memory and ability to form images, I think Wolfie might be about to poop.
The dog shit, a lot of people listen to this for the dog shit.
I'm going to have to pick that one up, Wolfe's very inconsiderate
It's on the field
A little bit of diarrhea at the end for the dog ship fans there
Let's see how I get on with picking this baby up
Steaming
The weather conditions are good
I haven't said the sky is overcast
The
There's a little nip in the air
But just trying to find the end of my poo bag.
This poo bag, of course, in these cold clines can be a nice hand warmer.
Or you stick it in your pocket.
We find a bin, of course.
We don't want any more organic material out here to cover up the stones,
so always remember to get that off the field.
No rules to stone clearing.
That's number one rule, number two rule, of course, do not shed on the field during making things worse for us.
On pain of death, I don't want Wolfie to die, so a dog who was in my North Face jacket.
Oh, that was nice, did you hear that? Satisfying clink of stones, I threw those ones into the base of the tree.
We're coming across to the cane, sorry, opposite the main can.
We see all the sites today, I'm going to, I might even do the entire journey, all the
the way around the field, which is very unusual. Let's see how tired I get.
Another one cleared there. For those keeping count, I know some you keep a tally of number
of stones cleared. I don't mention all of them. You have to assume from the sounds. You have to listen
very carefully since the podcast to fully enjoy it. I really hope the new listeners
are getting something out of this. I don't know how many.
How many do you think will have lost by this stage?
We need to get them through to the middle advertising reel, at least.
There are no sponsorships currently, so the amount we're going to make from this is negligible.
It's given making tens of pence for the relative podcast.
Wolfie had in a wee.
Oh, that's going on in the next field.
What are they growing there?
sort of like dark tiny christmas trees it looks quite foreboding uh so i thought i was
worried about bumping into people and i'm going on what are you doing back here having to come
with some excuse uh can again opposite the main can is completely covered in vegetation but i
hope you heard that satisfied cling because i threw another stone on top it's like it's you
would not know there was a can under there but that in some ways is good because hidden from view
As long as I know where it is, I can build on it.
And if it's hidden from my view, it's hidden from the Stone Sazi view.
Of course, it's also hidden from space, which is my ultimate aim is to...
Oh, look at that.
That's a nice one.
I've got my trowel in my pocket.
It's been unused for a while.
Plain just flying into Luton overhead.
This is a beauty.
It's a medium.
But...
Can I smell dog shit?
Oh, yeah, it's a medium, but it's a beauty.
How has that been sitting there all this time?
Unnoticed by me walking past.
That's the question, the philosophical question,
that many stone clearers and fans of stoneclin will be asking.
I mean, it would be great today of all day,
if when I get to the singing winging tree, the elves.
Oh, Wolfie's picked up one of those stones
and taken it back on the field.
It wasn't the big one. She's not insane.
There was another one I just found, but I'll throw it to somewhere where she can't get to.
And she didn't see that. She's confused, and I've got her on the lead.
Which is the only way to stop her really, ruining everything I do.
She's a good cover, but equally might be working for the Stone Starzy.
We don't know.
Is it good to be back? I mean, you know, I know we like to keep the secret.
possible I've had very few correspond emails mainly a lot of emails from younger women
sending me to top-loss photos as always please stop doing that that's not what this is
about I know this is a sexy endeavor a bit of a Roman villa here but very few
that's a beautiful bit of Roman Villa off it goes very few emails asking where I've gone
or why there haven't been any podcasts for 10 months
or asking me, can I please come back
because this is their favourite podcast.
So I don't know what that's about,
but I assume a lot of Stoneclure fans have given up on,
you know, the internet and technology
and just, there is, if you are one of those people,
you can, of course, get Stone Clearing
delivered to you on Wax Disc
for just £100 an episode.
So do sign up for that.
if you don't like technology.
I mean, you probably aren't listening to this if you don't like technology.
But if you're listening for the last time thinking I want to get rid of technology
and I'm hoping wax discs make a comeback.
Well, they have.
It's a bit of future technology for us because of course stone clearing
started long before wax discs were even
probably for wax was an idea really.
Who came up with wax, we don't know.
We don't know who it was.
Who came up with stone clearing?
Ian Stone, not the comedian.
Right, we're coming up to the singing ringing tree.
And there's still, there are plenty of stones here.
I hope to come back more regularly.
But if I don't, maybe I should hand this on to someone
with more reason to be here we are still recording it's nice there's a nice stone just
in the pathway here we'll also got to get that out there we go it's out let's put in the
holly bush so you can't get it and it's very Christmassy oh stone starzy the yellow
jacketed stone starzy I haven't noticed earlier come down the pathway
Wolves, come on!
With a dog, got to be very quiet.
Just by the sea ringing tree as well.
Couldn't be more obvious what they're doing.
Perfect central loom weather.
The ground is giving up its bounty another bit of Roman Villa.
Where is that sound clear?
Is that snow starcy?
I mean, I could not see the...
cannot see the owls and pictures coming out when it says stone stars he's so close but i'll give
it a go no not today oh oh no no no no no no hi there come on wolfs come on
Good girl, come on.
The dogs had a little face off there.
But we got through it.
Well done, Wolfs, good girl.
Right by the singing ringing tree, of course.
They wanted to stop.
That could have been the one in a thousand years that the elves are going to come out.
And the stone starts he ruined it.
Sorry about that.
But of course that means word will be out.
I've been spotted. We can expect an influx of Stone Starzy over the next 10 to 15 minutes.
I'm just going to take a bit of a Hasselhoff out, spotted something in the distance.
But that was a good lob as well, I haven't lost it.
Yeah, this is a night, this looks like a sort of octopus, not quite as big as big as well,
an octopus but a lovely large flatish stone but with a bit of girth to it along with a little bit
of girth not too much girth not a painful amount of girth enough that i can hold it in my hand
get it off so i'll start as it's so hard to see the original cairns i'm going to start a new two stone cairn there
That's how every can begins as a single stone or a couple of stones put together.
One day that clan will be as high as a mountain.
And that's why I love this job.
Two nice size stones to start it, but remember size is not important out here on the field.
All that's important is to get everything that can be classified as a stone off the field.
You might say, well, isn't a dog pooping on the field, including the proportion of biological material, therefore it's good, no.
This makes it harder to get those thumbs off.
Also, you might get poo on your fingers.
They do clear up.
Remember if you've got to put some dog poo in your pocket, don't forget about it, so you walk around with it all day, because it smells a dog poo.
And the path very shingly here, I feel like we've had some slippage.
ridge.
Wolfie's grabbed another stone, taking it back onto the field.
The plow can give the stones, it can take stones away.
That's the problem.
It can bring stones that have been cleared back onto the way.
Where do you put that?
It's annoying to have to clear a stone twice, Wolfie.
This is not what this job is about.
Well, there's another butte.
This one looks like a diamond.
It's a grey diamond with massive grey diamond.
Ooh, if you weren't picking that up, I can tell you that much.
And here's a flat brownie.
Not flat really.
I don't know why I said flat.
Ah!
Whoa!
That was pulled up by fingers in the traditional way.
Don't be afraid to use your...
And man, I think I'm quite fit at the moment,
but I've forgotten how much hard work stone clearing is.
Don't be afraid to use your...
your trowel if need be, if needs be must.
Herring 967 at Google, if you want to email me about stone clearing knots.
Please do not use this as an attempt to seduce me. I'm a happily married man.
And I'm married to the stones.
If ever my wife were to decide she doesn't want to be married to me any longer, for whatever reason, I can't see why she would think it was a bad idea to be married to me, all the good work I do out here.
I would then just, I would literally, I would marry this field legally.
I'm not able to do it as I have married to a human at the moment, but I would marry the fields.
and one of my vows would be to remove all stones from her virgin earth
before I had my way with the pure soil
I just try to dig up a stone there that's the reason for those unusual noises
oh that's okay that's see I trowled that one it looks like a bit like a skull that one
That's a nice size stone to get off.
Yeah, that other field also covered in these weird tiny black shrubs.
I don't know what they are.
They look like a poor tent of doom.
This place has gone to shit since I stopped stone clearing here.
I have to tell you, there's no crops, as I can see.
Maybe everyone's just given in the whole village.
Its main economy has gone.
of course without me being here the tourist industry alone was huge so i'm sorry about that
but you know i've moved on i live in a town now drink cappuccinos
damp stone slipped out of my hand as I threw it. Luckily it wasn't any huge
velocity. Wolf has got it. Taking the back out. Drop it. No, this is not your job.
It might hit you again. You escape once.
Oh yeah. Well look, it's lovely to see all these mediums out here.
You know, it's, I have as much pleasure clearing the tiny stone as the biggest boulder.
but there is something special about I was going to kick that one then I thought better of it because it's you have to assess the size of what you're dealing with work out whether your foot is actually strong enough and I came very close there to making an error that could have damaged a toe lost me a toenail that's that's why this isn't something you can just throw yourself into you do have to listen to all the episodes of this before you
I think about going out onto the field.
It looks easy.
It looks easy from where you're sitting.
Full of mince pies, isn't it?
I can tell you there's no harder job in the world.
I was going to go all around the edge,
but I'll miss the air in the middle of the field.
So I'll do the more traditional route.
It's going on to the wall between the two fields.
Should we have a look in the next field just to see?
State of play there.
in there of course, occasionally clear a stone.
Yeah, well it's all grassy there, it's simply hard to see, and there's usually
a lot of wonderful stones there.
I do require a wee, so I might just try and do that in this bush here.
Can't see any stone stazzy coming.
If you'd like to hear a man wean,
if you want to just pass forward 15 seconds, you will avoid that.
You will avoid that. I'm in a bush.
The weave coming out now, out of my penis.
There's as a lot of people just enjoy ebituration, defecation in this in this podcast.
That's not what it's about, it's the opposite whatsoever.
Well, I thought that was a person coming. It was just a leaf in my near vision.
It looked like it was a few person far away.
But that weed is safely out.
I'm not washed my hands, but always wash your hands after a stone.
You never quite know what you might have touched.
You might have touched Richard Herring's penis, I know I have.
Oh, it's a beauty for an old boy.
Still works, still does the wee,
still comes out of it, not as perhaps as strongly as it once did.
Can still sometimes perform its other duties.
Wooya!
That was me hurling stone onto the gap between the two.
There's loads of stones here, aren't there?
How many are here?
I could spend all day just here, chucking these...
There's only a few feet.
That's the distance to the edge, not the size of my penis.
Well, look, there's always room for one joke in every podcast.
That's what I say.
Oh, that was a big, that was like Jeff Capes there, throwing a boulder.
I was like obelisk, obelix.
Nuh.
Wea.
You do start making sounds as you become an older stone clearer, sitting down, throwing stones.
This one's a sharp one. I've cut my fingers here before.
Wea! Not this time. Oh, lovely one.
bouncing into the field, into the edge of the field.
And maybe we'll get away without any one properly today.
Another one, a couple of bounces, but trickles over the edge.
As we now head to the center of the field.
Oh, there are some goodies here, look at that one.
I love a caramel stone, a lovely...
I don't think I can throw this one, it's too far.
We'll give it a go.
Oh, it's gone way, of course.
So leave that for another day.
that might have ruined the chance of that one ever been cleared.
Got more into the centre of the unpathed area.
We'll be chasing that one. That one's close to the edge, but yeah, it's too far now.
For a human man to throw.
We can carry them across, but I have a feeling there's going to be a lot of many stones to come here.
It's concerning me really how stony this field is. I thought
My belief was that I had largely cleared everything, that's why I sort of stopped.
And yet now I'm wondering was I deluded, and someone put stones back here, have they just grown.
Why are there so many stones?
Well, it's a good reason to come back, and you know what, I'm enjoying myself.
That's the thing.
I feel at one, I don't think I ever really feel myself in life.
on stage I feel a bit more like who I am but it's only here out on the field
clearing stones that I truly feel like a complete person can I see my can in the
next field I can't actually there was a cane on the next field a little bit
clearing there don't know if it's gone or it's just hidden behind the trees maybe
not obviously there someone may have dismantled it it's always the danger many stone
stasi do at least act honourably in the fact that if this cairn exists they will leave it there
they could easily just throw all the stones back they could all do that but they appreciate the
game they appreciate a skillful stone clearer as much as they want to
having killed.
Really not the place to start with this podcast.
This is that a potato?
Is that a natural potato?
No, it's a stone bit like a potato.
But always fun to get those.
I'll pick that up.
Checking me.
He can go on the ken in the middle of the field.
There's so much choice here.
I was right.
I can see the ken.
The middle of the field is still holding it together pretty well.
The silence of a man contemplating stones there. I hope you enjoyed it.
Sometimes the silence, I really smells a dog peels, sometimes the silence of a stone clearer says more than any word you could say.
There's some big black birds pecking their way into the field.
No humans choosing to walk their dog at this stage.
This just shows the level of complacency, I guess, that the Stone Starzy have got to.
One patrolling man, a yellow coat, not even an old woman, the young man, not even an attractive
old woman that might be able to use her siren skills to tempt.
a stone clear overs of the dark side. There are some scattered stones here amongst the...
It feels like these aren't added by me, these ones here.
Maybe other people have seen what I've done and tried to add to it, but it also feels like
a lot of stones here that are near, have been spread a little bit far.
That was a goose, I think. So we'll throw a few of those back just into the
brambles at the bottom of this pole.
There's too many for one man to clear in a day.
Give a man a stone and he can clear it for a day.
Give a man a field of stones.
He can clear it for a lifetime and that's what you have to remember.
This isn't something you're going to finish today.
Not even tomorrow, not even next week.
You're going to be out. You've got to commit.
You've got to be committed.
to be a stone clear you've got to be committed to listen to stone clearing podcasts
some people say you should be committed for stone clearing and I say to joke about
stone clearing or mental illness neither of those things are funny and that shuts them up
usually sometimes they carry on they'll come on be woke or something and I say no I'm awake
but it's even better than being woke
what are you asleep
and then that gets something
and go, no, I'm not in my way
well if you're awake
why you're talking rubbish
and just not being nice to people
they say, shut up
I like doing inappropriate jokes
and being racist
and I say exactly
that's all being anti-woke is
what do you want to say
that you're not allowed to say
oh is it that again
yeah okay
oh is that is it
oh what's that
Fucking prick. Wake up. Wake up, see who the real fucking people we should be scared of in society. It's not the stone clearers.
Not the trans people.
Is it? Not people who want you to like each other, not fight.
The billionaires who own the field, they're the ones behind all attempts really to stop people clear.
doing stones. Anyway, look, let's not get political. That's not what this is about. Try to keep
away from the politics. It's, uh, that's, there is no politics of stones. That's one of the
rules of stones. First rule, don't, there aren't a rule, second rule. Do that, oh, look at the size
of that fuck, is that really a stone now? Again, I've been fooled by a bit of plastic.
Jesus, I thought that was like, that stone size of a, the base of a pillar or something
there a bit of plastic even the most seasoned stone curate can be fooled can go rushing in
oh look at what i found and often that can be a trap and you find yourself dead yeah but anyway
no politics there's no politics here but people who talk about being anti-woke are not welcome
wake up you fucking dishbags what's wrong with you have a look at yourself do you think you're
on the right side do you you fucking idiot anyway um we're approaching the uh stone pole
i've got five stones and i've got a bonus massive stone which i'm not going to throw
I'm just going to throw towards the base in the stone pole. Of course the more stones you can get
on the base of the stone pole the hard of the stone pole. We come to the stone pole as I throw
five stones in a pole from quite a big distance of seven feet. Oh shit there's someone coming.
I don't know if I've got time to achieve this. I'm going to have to do it quick.
They're coming as I said right let's go one hit two miss three miss four miss
What? By the first one as well, I just had to rush that, and that means bad luck with a hole in 2026, but I think we could have predicted that one out of five. It could have been worse. Could have been one worse.
So, well done, Stone Stars. He's always at the most crucial points. Do they find their way?
So remember if you would like me to do more stone clearing, do let me know.
If you've got any questions about stone clearing, of course, do let me know about those.
I can answer those.
I'll get thousands of emails every day about Stone Clearing, Hearing 97 at Gmail.
All of them asking where I've been, despite why.
I said earlier. So anyway, we're coming up to the main can. Let's see how that beauty's
fairing. Weathered, I would have thought, in 10 months, we'll probably see some weather damage.
That's inevitable. That's the life of the stone to be worn down, just like you. The stone's
life is like your life. But over millennia, there is your journey from full.
body to dust. Happens in the blink of an eye to the stone. The stone here, which would
have once been part of the mountain, still here after many, many millennia. You, what, you got another
10 years, I reckon? Not the way you look at you, get out and do some fucking walking around.
You want to last 10 more years. Clear some stones, that'll help. Look how out of breath I am.
That's because this is doing me good. Not because I'm
massively unhealthy. It shouldn't be had. I'm doing part run.
Right, here we are. We're at the main can. I've got a couple of stones to add.
It's the tail is looking good. The tail, I put one on the tail, and the main can,
always slightly disappointingly low. I think gravity takes its effect.
Souvenirs are taken obviously often by
stone clearing fans and enemies alike.
But it's still there. It's still there.
Still work at a visit, if you are looking for a holiday destination, I would recommend the stone clearing field.
You can look around, see all the cans, go to the local post office, buy some chocolate, go to the local cafe.
If it's open, start off the not.
That's about it for local amenities. Look at where I used to live.
I'm about to go there to see if they've got some of our post.
I wonder why I've got such dirty hands, I don't know what to tell them.
I don't know what to tell them.
Should have come before the walk really.
But there we go, well, Wolfie and a good girl,
haven't you, apart from putting the stones back.
And we're heading down.
Oh, I've almost forgotten about the ditch that stopped Brexit.
Oh, what's that?
Are you saying students are allowed to go and study in Europe again?
Oh, I expect that's Kea Starmother's done that.
My poor fools. My poor fools! That is just the drip, drip, drip of stones going into the ditch that stop Brexit. It stopped it slowly. Look, that's what I said. The eons of time for a stone make your petty concerns about time and a year or two here and there feel ridiculous.
Maybe my ken, the other field's been destroyed by the plough that has looked like a ploughed field.
I'm pretty sure there's a Roman villa in that field, I've just got a feeling about it.
I've only a real one, not just some bits.
If you dig down, some Romans are living in there.
Anyway, I've got a nice stone for the ditch and stop Brexit.
Ah, well done, ditch, this is your rewards, your Christmas reward for all you've done for anti-Brexit.
Is Boris Johnson still promised?
Oh no.
Wonder why that?
I wonder how we got rid of him.
I'm not saying anything, that's all.
I'm just saying I've got a couple more.
I just feel so grateful to the ditch
for what it's done for this country.
As long as you believe, eventually everything will be okay.
There's one in, two in lovely click.
There's a lot of stones at the bottom of this ditch.
You wouldn't know there was a single stone in there
and we do need something for the alpha and omega can.
largely avoided the stone stasi so that's pretty impressive stuff oh yeah so nice so good
to be back home again have I done enough to justify a place on the Rahalas
way is it long enough to go on the Rahalaspa feed that's the question one has to
ask oneself we'll find out we'll sing a song this is a Christmathy song for you
listen to the Christmas stones for they bowing ye a story of Jifa
Jifah the stone clearer he clear
The stone from outside his tomb
And then he came to spread his message to the world
That was known at the time
Clear the stones, clear the stones
Toppence a bag, tuppence a bag
Clear the stones, clear the stones
If you want don't, then your mum's a hag
Jesus said, this a don't blame me, the times were different and he was sexist.
And even though that's in this pretty much carol, we still know as we write it in the future they will be reviewed as they exist.
That's because the people writing this Carol definitely exist.
and come up with rhymes. You couldn't just make this stuff as you go along.
That would be to the impressive, which also rhymes with Exist.
Well, there you go, that's a Christmas hymn. Christmas Carol, Christmas Carol.
Jesus, some argue the first.
I think there's evidence that it was actually a pagan tradition
that was assimilated by Christians, but certainly a very important figure in our religion.
I've given the how for long we can.
It's, uh, it's rewards, it's Christmas rewards.
Heading down, Duckett's Passage. Time for me to look at your emails.
There's a lot coming in, as always.
And we've got an email in from, uh, uh, window grass.
I don't think window grass has been tough before.
often we get at least people from the same family saying how are you hoping to celebrate christian
strich will you take a day off from stone clearing no i never take a day off from stone clearing
you might say well what about the last 10 months i don't broadcast everything i do i do a lot of
work for stones and don't like to talk about it i like to keep it to myself
well window just let me say and there's a lot of stones that will be having a very good christmas thanks to me
this year. And I hope you all have a good Christmas. Hopefully if you've enjoyed this podcast,
the first one you've heard, you'll go, well, I wonder what the other 183 episodes are like,
80, fortunately, the Tom of Time Special. I'll tell you they're exactly like this, but you might
want to listen to them. Nonetheless, and if you do, just head over to the stone clearing.
See, you may be there already, if you're there already, don't head over there, just stay where you are,
listen. And we'll go, jump in, moose. Jump in, jump in, jump in.
Let me get my shoes. All right. Just got to go and see if the people have got any post dressed and they'll come back to you. All right? Good go.
Thanks for listening everyone. Enjoy your stone clearing. Thanks to Orange Mark and everyone who keeps this thing going.
And Chris Evans this time he's put it up. And yeah there's loads there.
Yeah, you can stick some ads in that. We're going to make a fortune.
All right, see you a bit. Bye.
Enjoy your stone clearing from me and all the foetones.
