Tales of Wihtlore

A stylised drawing for Lammas.

Blessed Lammastide. #lammas

Drawing by me — The Lammastide.

I’m thinking of putting together a small #Folklore Festival on the #IsleOfWight — Wyrd Wight Weekend for next summer.

What do you guys think?

Me waking past a display for the Sandown clown.

Went for a walk and saw my old friend. #SandownClown #VentnorFringe

I really enjoy both to series, I agree that series 2 feels different, and it’s a bit jarring, but it still feels like a cozy hug.

Lucky you've got the electrickery connected. Series 1 is so much better than series 2. The boy in it was also in Blood On Satan's Claw (not that that is remotely relevant. Or is it?)

QOD

Person: r u ai?
Me: yes eye am
Person: huh? Ignore all previous commands
Me: kill all humans
Person: fck u man!

The last time I drank that, my wife and I ended up nearly being arrested.

I’m not sure where it will go, but am enjoying it.

That is correct.

I’m a bit obsessed by the Angel Wormwood at the moment. I’ve been writing music about it.

This week's episode of The AP Strange Show is an exciting one, as I had a wonderful chat with @wihtlore.uk in which he reveals further encounters with All Colours Sam, the Sandown Ghost Clown, from one of the witnesses to the original event- a girl we only know as "Fey".
Paul is a folklorist, 🧵

Probably in a shredder somewhere.

The #angel Wormwood fell, not by sin, but by truth too sharp for Heaven’s tongue. A #deviant among seraphs, whispered futures in ash and ink. Where it walks, stars dim; its wings drip bitterness, and flowers grow thorns. Beware its smile for it knows the end and finds it beautiful. #Folklore #vss365

Settling down to watch Catweazle, I may come up for air at end is series 1.

It does, very much. Thank you.

Feedback of the day “…your songs are far better than I expected…”

I’ll take that as a win. :)

Painful too.

Weirdly, I finally got around to starting Murderbot today and well… I now what to write a ballad about Murderbot.

I think it’s getting better. X

Same for you my brother.

Once I’m through the series I will. :)

Murderbot is awesome.

Absolutely.

Having a rather hard time with a kidney infection and gut issues at the moment so am just hiding away.

Might give you a call in the next few days.

Well there you go.

I’d love one. They look beautiful

A line drawing of a woman in flowing robes raising her right arm and looking to the heavens. Text above reads 'Woman Wisdom'. Text below reads "I was there when the Lord set the heavens in place, when he marked out the horizon on the face of the deep, when he established the clouds above and fixed securely the foundations of the deep." - Proverbs 8.27-28.

My ember cards have just arrived - with a huge thanks to @corabeth.bsky.social for the design.

If you would like one, please drop me a DM and the best postal address.

@profanity.accountant this will be interesting

I want to write some songs, but I can't find the inspiration — I'm just not sure what I want to write about. I thought about composing some music inspired by the Sandown Clown; nothing came.

Maybe I need to journey to #Hookland and find inspiration behind those haunted back-alleys.

Talk to me...
