Smeuse - Sussex dialect
I started reading a book today about the language of landscapes ( Robert Macfarlane). I discovered the word Smeuse which is a word in Sussex dialect that means
“ a gap under a fence or hedge made by the regular passage
Of a small animal.”
When I saw these perfect examples, on our early evening walk, I just had to take a picture .
Unfortunately, shortly after Dave tripped as he climbed over a style and injured his shoulder, probably dislocated. He is now in A and E awaiting treatment . I wasn’t allowed in , so am at home waiting for a call to fetch him . It was horrid leaving him and really brings home how truly awful it is for those whose loved ones are seriously ill and need to be in hospital .
It seemed fairly quiet so hopefully he will be seen quickly .
Oh dear , an unfortunate end to a lovely, sunny day .
