    thanks eric and j. andrew - i'm glad you can feel it and yes jal - the hail on Palm Sunday - it does produce that foreshadowing - as to trying for this - i didn't have to - nature did it for me - i just made the observation and played with it for a while - around here some villages have a donkey walk the streets to church on Palm Sunday - often carying a child - followed by a small procession - this in the hail - heavy hail as it became at certain times of the day - is a more striking image perhaps than the wheelbarrow but the wheelbarrow with hail in its bottom on Palm Sunday just seemed right in its understatement its just being...
