It is October 12th and feast of one of the obscurest saints (even off the radar of @DrFrancisYoung), but one of my favourites. Raise honey cake or mead to your mouth for it is St. Melen’s Day! https://t.co/1qZlooMlv7

It injures us personally, when as a culture we lose out ability to recognize subtle borders – not just of gloaming, turn of seasons – but those exchanges between our world and those that enfold it.

I walked all along the Ashcourt end of the canal trying to track down Trippy Pete. I lost count of the number of boats I knocked on. It wasn’t all wasted though as I heard a couple of new Blackwater John with his soul-bottle necklace stories. – #MattAdams, 1980 https://t.co/vl1jyP3pL9
