These holiday journals are so good :0) I remember when we went to Ireland, when I was little, my brother being allowed to choose which shillelagh we took home, with great seriousness picking one up and swinging it and a grown up hastily grabbing...

Posted on Sat, 18 Oct 2025
Herbican is a lovely name, but his character is not so! I worry, reading this, that I am a bit like him, as I love both Autumn AND Spring. Autumn, to me, seems like Nature's big party/dance before a battle. I hope I do not meet anybody like...

That's a wonderful IP response, Rhiannon :0) Agree about Victorian hymns being great fun, the unity found in all the voices, doesn't matter if a person (eg me) can't sing, the feeling of joy, being uplifted, the shell of the walls filled with a...

"Silent billows drift – clouding veil that
