Up above Whitshell Cove, where the drowned dead are said to send floating lights once a year to let the living know they have not forgotten them, is the ‰Û÷Ghost Camp‰Ûª. What it was in prehistory I cannot say, what it is now is centre of mystery. – #CLNolan

Amelia! Amelia! Throw salt and savory in the pan Heat them up, let them choose you a man Amelia! Amelia! Throw salt and sage in the pan Heat them up, send him back to where he began – Trad. Hookland cottage rhyme alluding to use of herbs in fortune telling and magic.

@pipkazan @anicegreenleaf Something could be arranged. I mean the Bone Horse of winter is many things, but I would not call it camp. I wouldn‰Ûªt dare call it all, but that‰Ûªs another matter.

Elf Ways, Faery Tracks – folk give them various names. Out Barrowcross they call them ‰Û÷Shifting Paths‰Ûª and tell tales of walking them expecting to come out one place and ending up in a different world or another year. Sometimes, another year is a different world. – Tom Rudd #VOH

@pipkazan @anicegreenleaf The Hookland Christmas tree would have Stay Belows at bottom; ice-frosted Marsh Apes; ivy-crowned Woodwoses; shimmering Empress Eel garlands; the grinning face of the Apple Man; flickering lights in the shape of mangelwurzel lanterns, Moss Maidens and the Starfall Common star.

Due to @pipkazan I’ve been thinking what Hookland’s Christmas tree would have … Stay Belows; ice-frosted Marsh Apes; ivy-crowned Woodwoses; shimmering Empress Eel garlands; silver pylons; mangelwurzel lanterns; Moss Maidens, Grey Bone Horse of winter and Starfall Common star.
