Money Does Grow On Trees

After all of those admonishments when you were younger (or perhaps even now?) about your profligate ways, here at least is some good news.  Money does, in fact, grow on trees.  In the North of England, they seem to make a habit of it.  OK, so it may just be visitors who do it but these trees sure look... well, make up your own mind.

It is said that if all the rich people in the world divided their money up between themselves then there almost certainly would not be enough to go around. Perhaps wishing for money is one thing, but getting it is another. As they say, when the gods wish to punish us, then they give us what we want. Cicero, way back before the Christian era said that endless money created the sinews of war – and nothing is truer than that two thousand years later.

Same thing in the Fairy Glen, on the Black Isle:

(not my photo btw, but I have been there).

Everyone knows they're in there for the fairies, either to generally get fairy favours, or so the fairies keep the water in the stream clean. Bugger all to do with 'financial hopes' or anything like that!
