Cute story of sudden internet fame.
Gerald Stratford Knows How to Garden
Mr. Stratford had gone from retired butcher to barge driver on the Thames River to internet famous.
“I learned pretty quick that if you just sit quietly and mind your own business, mother nature will come to you. If you see a grass snake in the summer, it will scurry away or swim across the river, but if you don’t move and just stay there, eventually, it will turn around and come back, and it will go about its business,” Mr. Stratford said. “It’s the same as a vole or a rat or a badger or a deer or bird, if you do nothing, it will accept you. It’s only man’s greed to control everything which makes, at times, our wildlife frightened.”
