Beowulf is a new limited edition from Folio! Seamus Heaney’s translation is presented in parallel with the Old English verse. Expertly bound in leather and blocked in foils with gilded page tops, this limited is printed in two colours throughout. https://t.co/q5hHZApowz

I wonder why Yvain was the only knight who got an animal companion? And why stop at lions?

I want to hear about Evain, the knight of the rhinoceros! Or Ovain, the knight with the tiger! Or Phil, the knight who drew the short straw and got stuck with the ill-tempered badger

'Once upon a time' at the beginning of stories is boring and takes too long to say

I suggest we start abbreviating it to 'O.U.A.T' or 'ouat', and to make it easier to pronounce we should spell it 'hwæt'

Saw a woman on the train writing weird symbols in a notebook, we got to talking, and it turned out she is a player of a secret Game that has been going on for thousands of years. Had to get off because it was my stop but it sounded interesting.

@AsheLaura I hope he turns up!

Twitter might be a bigger cesspool than ever these days but random motivational messages from Chaucer in Middle English still make it worth sticking around

Is there anything better than an FA Cup final on a day like this? Always the best day of the year

[Tim @OftTimAnhaga]

Changed my mind, worst day of the year
