It's beautiful outside! Could it be the beginning of spring? Pleeeeeease.
Tomorrow evening I'll be doing an online event for The Last Tuesday Society at The Viktor Wynd Museum. Was a werewolf *really* loping around Hull ten years ago? Join us & find out. thelasttuesdaysociety.org/event/the-we...
That was a fascinating afternoon! @jomarchant.bsky.social talked to us at @ConwayHall about her new book 'In Search of Now'.
At least you didn't have to share your cake? It's an ill wind, and all that.
Working from home often requires compromises.
Just encountered a misspelling of Alphege as 'Alphage' and I am picturing an Anglo-Saxon archbishop who eats elves

I tried to take a photo of a grasshopper on my windshield, but now it looks like a gigantic bug destroying the town.
Went to 'The Last Days of Pompeii Immersive Experience' today. Here are some piccies from the photobooth. The left one is the Roman lady filter and the right one is the Ellen de Generes filter.
Will it be long enough for you to pull up to cover half your face, Lugosi-style? Make sure it's long enough. With red lining.
Here is the official video of the Wycombe Wyrm day which was happening this time last week, and was organised by Stevyn Colgan and Mark Page www.youtube.com/watch?v=T1od...
It always takes me by surprise at this time of year but… the year is now 10% over! carpe diem! youtu.be/6liD8TdlJFA?...
The 'Wyrd Wycombe' bunch have made the papers! I don't normally dress like this on a Sunday, but we were in a re-enactment & festival organised by the amazing Stevyn Colgan & his friend Mark. Long live the Wyrd. I'll be there next year and you'll love it too.
Who was the first modern pagan?
That is, who was the first person in modern times to embrace revived pre-Christian religion?
The answer may surprise you.
I've posted an article on him here, including one of his satirical pieces against Christianity which has never before been published:

Obvs.
I'm sure public life (including international) was always this scuzzy, but perhaps we're noticing it more at the moment.
My flatmate who worked at Forbidden Planet once served Fenella Fielding. She was in her sixties & he in his twenties but he was love-struck. She said "Thank you Daaaaahling"
