One for the Roady Doady

A muddled motto leads to some aspirational phrases, and a few that we're unlikely to live by.

A muddled motto leads to some aspirational phrases, and a few that we're unlikely to live by. A choir is faced with the threat of “doing bird” when falsely accused of pushing gulls off walls. And a child coins a nickname for a rhododendron at RHS Wisley.

On European Day of Parks, the murmuration heads to Abington Park, in Northampton, for a skate. While the musical mix includes Ray Davies singing with a cold, Ella Fitzgerald singing with the Ink Spots, a donkey ride with The Fisherman’s Friends, and a lovely bit of Badfinger.

To listen on most smart speakers, just say: "Ask ѿý Sounds to play Liza Tarbuck."
