Absolutely marvellous. Pam Ayres was a perfect choice of speaker. She is such a talented lady who has the gift of putting profound thoughts into humorous rhyme.
I've had the pleasure of seeing - and listening - to this lovely lady quite a few times and she never fails to make me think as well as laugh out loud. Thank you Pam Ayres for the years of joy you have given me and all fellow poetry lovers . . . especially those who weren't before they heard you!!
This poem has brought tears to my eyes. So sad and heart felt. She has such a talent for reducing you to tears one minute and making you belly laugh the next. I love to listen to her, and hope she lives forever.
Pam's poem pollen in the wind about moving house brought a lump to my throat. Her poems and stories are a delight, she is a clever, funny and genuinely lovely lady.
I just LOVE this lady. Thank you for uploading this. She truly is a treasure. I'm a lot nicer the rest of the day after listening to her. Thanks so much.
I felt the same when I left my home of 25 years. My beautiful Grey Shrike Thrushes nested every year in a hanging pot plant on the back veranda. The one acre garden was a haven for all kinds of birdlife including Honey Eaters, Wrens, and Satin Bower Birds. My children, my parents, friends and relatives all spent their time there. There were many happy times and some sad ones too. I know what she means when she says she can’t look down the driveway ever again. There’s a deep and lasting grief in leaving a beloved home. Beautiful poem Pam. Brought tears to my eyes and many others' as well, I’m sure.
I can't get over how uplifting was Pam's contribution to the CRT 25th Anniversary Conference. Parallel to her experiences with hedgehogs, I recently retired from a 5 acre free-range poultry business in sunny Oz where possums (not hedgehogs) also had free-range! The move to retirement involved taking over a house on a very small 400 sq.m. house by the seaside. We also have possums hereabouts, but there's little doubt they're struggling. So, how to improve the lot of the local possums? That is the thrill on this side of the planet, inspired, not doubt by one Pam Ayres and her hedgehogs.
Always wonderful, funny and down to earth in life and through her poetry. Love Pam Ayers. I have the same complaint as Pam, ‘please put my food on a plate’ not a slate or a timber plank. 🍽
8/23. My second listening after a few years. PA is even more relevant today. Being old I remember when our hedges were alive and accessible to kids. A wonderful intelligent and caring lady.
What a wonderful pleasure to listen to her caring and wit! My life was that of a policeman, travelling from one place to the next in Africa, my Missus and family coming with - we share her doubts about new places, but everyone has its own compensations. Thank you Pam...
Winnie Wallace... Whenever I feel a bit down in the dumps I watch a bit of The lovely Pam. Never fails to lift me and put a smile on my face. Keep doing your appearances, your a national treasure that's for sure.
Have just read Pam's memoirs. Absolutely hilarious but there where some sad bits. Would recommend as a brilliant read. This lady goes from strength to strength!!
You all prolly dont give a damn but does anyone know a trick to get back into an instagram account? I somehow forgot my password. I would appreciate any assistance you can offer me.
@Micah Dante Thanks so much for your reply. I found the site on google and Im trying it out atm. Takes quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
the poem about her former home was so moving; loved it, same with the hedgehog poem; both sad and yet so beautiful at the same time; so glad she finished off with a cheerful poem 😁
I remember Pam on Oppertunity Knocks all those years ago,and she is still as great as she was then, a wonderful lady. Her boys were taught swimming at the Leisure Centre in Cirencester where I was a receptionist, I remember her turning up with them for their lesson after a long absence. 'We haven't seen you for ages,' I said, 'No Iv'e been off galavantin
So enjoy your stories and quick and happy poems , keep us smiling through all this time at home thanks a treat , hoping one day we will meet in beautiful Sydney town 👋
I found a little hedgehog. It was 10pm and in the middle of the road was a little hedgehog with his head stuck through a mc donalds mcflurry lid. I stopped the car and took it off and put him somewhere safe. He was about 20ft from mcdonalds at the time. 😳 I hope he had a better life☺
Thank you Pam, I was moved by your whimses on the Hedgehog folks, And their baby Headgpogs, That wandered down the lane, Taking there own time. And Your's, And Mine.
I noticed no one was laughing when she said that peom about the house he left. Fully understandable, I think we all miss those old places we left behind.
How talented she is and full of humour of life which she is well known for. Imagine my surprise and shock years ago when she was utterly rude beyond belief when I had the misfortune of being introduced to her.
What happened to all the animals in the old house ? I wonder if all the trees were kept too ? I feel it's not just us that mind our leaving, but all of those things that are part of our home eg the wildlife etc mind our going too ❤️
Sad about the wildlife but the Bible says that mankind would do that. When God recreates the earth all the animals will be back ( for eternity) and they will be vegetarian !
Pam is rare soul who was put on this planet to make people happy.
She has succeeded ❤
Pam Ayrs a woman after my own ❤️ 💙 💜 💖 💗 💘

What a star, with lots of compassion with her poetry skills, easy to listen to, easy to love.
Absolutely marvellous. Pam Ayres was a perfect choice of speaker. She is such a talented lady who has the gift of putting profound thoughts into humorous rhyme.
She is amazing. I could listen to her all day. Such common sense. Such fun.

As always with this wonderfully gentle, wise and witty lady, two of the many joys are the joys of eloquence and of compassion.
A wonderful speech from Pam! She’s been to Australia many times and seeing her here is always a great heart-warming and fun night out.
I enjoy the fullness of her stories of joy, tears, humor, bittersweet, and hearty laughs.
This poem has brought tears to my eyes. So sad and heart felt. She has such a talent for reducing you to tears one minute and making you belly laugh the next. I love to listen to her, and hope she lives forever.
Pam Absolutely brilliant, I felt a tear coming as it brings memories back to me.
Pam's poem pollen in the wind about moving house brought a lump to my throat. Her poems and stories are a delight, she is a clever, funny and genuinely lovely lady.
And mine a huge one , what a true poem, Pam is a master of her trade and very dear soul 💖

Sad and joyous, all at the same time. Absolutely brilliant.
The poem reminds me of two homes I loved. It made me cry. I love all your work.

Please..... don't call that stuff poetry. That is not poetry it's humorous light verse, at best.
What a lovely lady ! Wonderful poem 💕
Her smile is utterly heartwarming
bloody amazing - love her this is so moving and poignant. Such a unique treasure and utterly English
Thank you so true when you have loved a house so much, I missed all my birds as well
Been to NZ & Australia & I’ve still not seen her! Love her poems, voice, smile❣️❣️
Absolutely brilliant and entertaining.Thank you for your contribution to the world for our animals and our amusement. You sre a rare treasure ❤❤❤

"The house embedded in my heart" put a lump in my throat.

sorry sent that accidently, to continue; I have always loved that response, and I hope you carry on 'galavantin' for a long time to come Pam.
So heartwarming. Thank you Pam
I was so very, very moved by Pam's poem about her home. Thank you so very much for sharing this on RUclips
One of my favourite poet/comedienne, I remember her great one "I wish I'd looked after me teeth " great lady
I could listen to her all day... She makes me smile...
"shall I ask them to read lightly where my faithful dogs are sleeping"
-- burst into tears at that line.
Yes that line hits home as we have pets buried in are garden.
tred lightly, not read lightly.
@@deb7412 or even "tread lightly".
Absolutely brilliant , what a wonderful lady ! ❤
Thank you Pam. X
My favourite entertainer!❤️🤩🥰👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧💕💕💕💕

I wish I looked after my teeth. So so funny😂

sending love Thankyou Pam xx
I love Pam, shes funny and lovely and she makes me laugh. Thank you Pam ❤
How talented she is and full of humour of life which she is well known for. Imagine my surprise and shock years ago when she was utterly rude beyond belief when I had the misfortune of being introduced to her.
Maybe put country side in the title, CRT has different connotations now……
But thanks for the lovely Pam ❤
What happened to all the animals in the old house ?
I wonder if all the trees were kept too ?
I feel it's not just us that mind our leaving, but all of those things that are part of our home eg the wildlife etc mind our going too ❤️
A national treasure!
Such a lovely lady and so funny ❤️
I want to hear the "Dolly on the Dustcart"! I haven't heard it for years.
Its on RUclips! Me, too!
Pam Ayres - The Dolly on the Dustcart
I’m not crying. You’re crying.
Irene 4252, I am English living in the US, how can I find Pam Ayers book.
What does Pam Ayres know about cathode ray tubes?
Bought my husband a present in feb 2023. 18 different types of shrubs. We love watching them grow . Materialism is nothing .
I love you Pam ❤️
Now I am getting a hedgehog home!
National treasure is Pam.
I love her too
Beautiful
Omg is she not the bees knees?
She is a treasure!
I know just what she ment about her home,😢
Ps how true about hedgehogs! A little thought goes so far, but thinking isn't taught these days & many don't care enough .
CRT, I was wondering WTF Pam was doing speaking on Critical Race Theory!
Sad about the wildlife but the Bible says that mankind would do that. When God recreates the earth all the animals will be back ( for eternity) and they will be vegetarian !
Really!! Of course they will
Yes they will and a peaceful paradise it will be.
Revelation 11vrs 18 / Daniel 2 vrs 44 /
Very poignant
Lol❤
Off to make a couple of heaps of dead branches and leaves for the hedhogs.
Hedgehogs dont fly
Ahhhh now that one wasn't funny😢
