In praise of Rights of Way officers
Bastions 'gainst barbed wire barbarity
because of you we know beauty.
Beautiful Britain,
lovely, deep and hidden,
bluebells, wells and dells.
You fight for our right
to say this or that way
is gorgeous, open and free.
You combat the fat
who say go away
it all belongs to me.
Enchanting Britain
A secret world of surprises for our children,
bridle ways, delightful maze, idle days.
Protecting what is precious for posterity
Courteous warriors, armed with yellow arrows.
Humble overlooked bureaucrats.
Success to them!

Hi Dave,
A friend of mine is RoW officer around these parts - I would KILL for his job!
