Can you help? This beautiful bronze statue of Saint Michael the Archangel, dedicated to those servicemen & women who gave their lives fighting for their country, has been stolen from atop the war memorial in our #Bedfordshire village. Please retweet & help us find Saint Michael!

23 June is the feast of St Etheldreda (Æthelthryth), abbess of Ely, who died in 679. One of the most important Anglo-Saxon female saints, she was the founder of a great Fenland abbey, which in death she fiercely guarded from Viking and Norman invaders. https://t.co/J502k6M0MQ

“Open wide, you gates.
Open wide, you ancient doors.
Then the King of glory will come in.” #NotreDameDeParis

Wonderful day ahead for 🇫🇷. Notre Dame will reopen on time, 5 years after it was gutted by fire. I was lucky enough to have visited the inside this week. It is stunning, the blanched stonework of vaults and pillars as they would have been in medieval times

The beautiful sound of the Notre Dame ‘Worker’s Choir’ rehearsing. More than 80 engineers, architects, carpenters, crane operators, construction workers… who all worked on the Cathedral’s restoration have formed a choir that will perform inside Notre Dame next week.

And in 2023, an astonishing 26.4 million acres burned

Sicily is facing one of the worst droughts in recent history, and groundwater reserves are reaching critical levels. But are there solutions when it doesn’t rain? https://t.co/U3ARkVz7UG

[Campaign for the Arts @_CFTA]

We are dismayed that Birmingham, the UK’s second city, will lose almost all its council funding for the arts over the next 2 years.

Defunding the arts will harm quality of life, exacerbate inequalities & set back economic recovery.

It will only make our problems worse.

That dusk, in the dark drawing room, Old Fox would light the little candles on the spruce tree for the last night & the ghosts of the past & those to come would step into the spun-gold for a moment, for the end of Yuletide is leaden, with time, with the fugacity of all things.
