From Sonnet 18
It is well known now as Shakespeare's phrase "The Darling Buds of May" was used as the title for his novel by H.E. Bates... which has since been adapted for television too 😊
Apologies for using my Japanese plum in 3 successive photos - I am enjoying it before it freezes (-2.6c last night)

Sonnet 18
Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate:
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer’s lease hath all too short a date;
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold complexion dimm'd;
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance or nature’s changing course untrimm'd;
But thy eternal summer shall not fade,
Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow’st;
Nor shall death brag thou wander’st in his shade,
When in eternal lines to time thou grow’st:
So long as men can breathe or eyes can see,
So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.
A menacing and sinister looking cloud sat over an apartment building on the far bank of the reservoir. As it churned and blustered it reminded me of my high school English class in Shakespeare. How it too would carry on in some indignant way that would have no effect.
Macbeth - "Life's but a walking shadow; a poor player, that struts and frets his hour upon the stage, and then is heard no more: it is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing."
Trying to find something different for the returning Shakespeare yesterday (there's not). I missed the classic approaching Dorridge shot, so this is a look back to 2011 when GWR 5043 Earl of Mount Edgcumbe took charge.

Vintage Trains use diesel units only for the first two Sundays of their Shakespeare Express 2022 season owing to a network steam ban in the Midlands. However on the 31st July GWR 7029 Clun Castle headed its first Shakespeare Express of the season through Dorridge. However because of the continuing high risk of line side fires it was assisted by a class 47 diesel locomotive at the back.
No. 7029 'Clun Castle' races south of Derby heading for Startford, approaching Stenson Junction with the Trent and Mersey Canal in the foreground on 8 June 2025.

Shakespeare's Globe is a reconstruction of the Globe Theatre, an Elizabethan playhouse first built in 1599 for which William Shakespeare wrote his plays. Like the original, it is located on the south bank of the River Thames, in Southwark, London. The reconstruction was completed in 1997 and while concentrating on Shakespeare's work also hosts a variety of other theatrical productions. Part of the Globe's complex also hosts the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse for smaller, indoor productions, in a setting which also recalls the period.
