Those who dont believe in magic will never find it!

 Me and my right hand man the paramili-tree Twigadier was out yesterday measuring the old oaks surrounding the phantom planters HQ and putting the girth size in the tree age calculator, turns out some of them are approx 600 years old!


I've always said that something guided me to this overgrown plot of land where I rocked up one day at the depths of my drink and drug addictions and all I had in my head was this karrna yoga practice that I read in Buddhism.

Its a practice thats supposed to purify you, when we offer our time and energy in selfless service for the benefit of mother nature and the community its supposed to boost your merit bank account and then good things will come your way, well thats how I was seeing it and the way my merit bank account was back then I was spiritually blacklisted and up to me eyes in debt with negative karma!


So I thought what have I got to loose, lets get planting and chanting and see what happens!


As I worked my way through the orchard over the years planting and chanting using money I would have spent on drink and drugs to pay for the fruit trees one by one my addictions dropped away, the orchard seemed to have absorbed the old me!


Pretty magical really all this Buddha stuff or Boodoo as my delboy dad always called them, he never knew what the Buddha was, when he seen me running around planting and chanting I think he thought I was into some voodoo stuff or something as he used to say all the time "them Boodoos have you possessed son", you cant be running around there planting trees using your own money and not making anything from it!

Totally understandable though for an underworld wheeler dealer to look at it this way...Everything was about the money for my delboy dad and for me too for most my life.


But anyhow back to how I was guided to where the phantom planters HQ is, I'm not even from this estate and now when I start to look around at all these ancient oaks surrounding me and the oak grove museum im starting with many of the UK and Irelands most famous and iconic trees acorns that are going to be planted up in this area, which is quite unbelievable really the acorns that I'm going to have very soon, wait till you see this list, from trees that Robin Hood hid in to oak trees that rebellions were talked about under, all the acorns from these mother trees are coming to the Buddhahood in Belfast to be planted up together!


You couldn't make it all up, there's more to these king trees, in ancient Ogham, the tree alphabet, Oak means King!

  A bit about me and how I became the phantom planter. I grew up in a Loyalist housing estate in Belfast, my father a Protestant and my mother was a Catholic from Ardyone, that had big complications here in Northern Ireland but I always knew I was a mongrel, a bit different! My dad was a delboy ( a buyer and seller of everything and anything) and from I could walk he had me a mini Delboy, from selling round the doors to off loading lorry loads of bootlegged cigs and booze straight in from Andorra, he had me street trading and playing part in his delboy tricks to help him sell his dodgy goods! I learned fast how to make money and school for me was my business, I had more money than the teachers, my dad would have stocked my bag up at lunchtimes for me with more of his dodgy goods, perfume, tobacco, clothing, all sorts I had in my bag, even sold some of my goods to the teachers! When I left school I was financially embarrassed for a small time, 1000 pupils to me was 1000 people with a po

From Spain to Belfast Phantom Planting!

  Phantom planted another apple tree yesterday with my big glaswegian pal who is over visiting! He couldn't believe the size of the orchard now! Last time we planted a tree was years ago in Spain, 2 plum trees we phantom planted out there, sadly they didn't survive but we had great fun doing it in the lashing rain right outside the Buddhist Stupa as you can see in one of the pics, an offering to the Buddha was my intention! I was at the worst of my addictions back then, used to visit this Stupa a lot for spiritual guidance, really found myself out there, spent a lot of time in Spain soul searching, taking advantage of the cheap winter flights and free stay! I had my last ever pint at the airport after praying at this Stupa, the Buddha responded to my offering I believe! Pretty magical really, faith in a higher power guys, that did it for me, there's more to all this life, more to all this all this world! "Those who don't believe in magic will never find it"..
