I met someone today who wants to get a tattoo of a pigeon in a party hat, and now I can't stop thinking about it.

Welcome, Spring!

[Natalie Roe @filmpixie]

May the road rise to meet you
May the wind be always at your back
May the sun shine warm upon your face
May the rain fall softly on your fields
And until we meet again
May God hold you in the palm of His Hands.

Happy St Patrick's Day!

Owning ancient woodland has certainly changed me mentally, but I don’t think it has changed me physically. What do you think?

A childhood where one spent time in the natural world is one that sees the magic of woods because one has seen firsthand how extravagant nature is with wonder.

Candlemas bells, February fair maids, Dingledeath's flower

Snowdrops symbolise renewal and hope for the coming Spring, the first flowers of the year.

'The snowdrop, in purest white arraie,
First rears her hedde on Candlemas day’

Mouse couldn't even talk to Bear's Sisters, so she wrote a note on a scrap of paper. "I do not feel very well in my head. I have no money & cannot pay you for my keep. I don't know how to be in the world, it is very hard for me." And she went back to bed to listen to the rain.

There is a type of divination using fire which is called pyromancy.
You can use the flames, smoke or ashes to reveal the future.
