Did you know Johnny Appleseed was based on a real person and he had a very specific reason for planting all those orchards? #folksky #folkloresky #folklore

It would be so great if you could RT my Etsy shop in the twoots below/above. My🌲 jewellery orders usually make up a significant part of my income at this time of yr but the X exodus has meant I’ve only received 1 order-pretty scary income-wise. A small boost would help so much. Thankyou🌿

That's weird that I should come across you here. I saw your book Withered Hill recently and thought I might read it.

Meet Groot, he is a bit of a local celebrity and is rumoured to have been an inspiration to Tolkien when he was stationed in Cannock Chase during the war

My name's Clare and I make crochet patterns, kits, and gifts.

If you don't crochet but would like to learn, I'd love to help! Otherwise I have a range of eco-friendly handmade ornaments and cards you might like.

You can find my shop and blog here: littleconkers.co.uk

β€œI’ll let you in on a secret. Life is better when you make space for what you love. This world will rob you of every sense of happiness that you possess, if you let it. You have to be intentional about giving yourself something to look forward to.”

Good Morning everyone, wishing you all a very good and peaceful Saturday, whatever you’re doing. We’re on a little hiatus at the moment until we dance on Sat Dec 14th in the Darwin Centre….by the Amazon parcel section. Victoria wonβ€˜t be there though. 😊#BeckhamMorris

German painter Heinrich Gogarten (1850-1911), an expert in capturing winter's mood, was renowned for evoking its eerie stillness through light.
As the nights grow longer, the setting sun burns red, and a supernatural chill fills the air...

Autism and mental health This resource looks at autism and mental health. It explains what autism is, how it’s diagnosed and what support is available for autistic people.

Almost all mental health problems and mental illnesses are more common in autistic people than in the general population. This new publication by R . C . Psychiatry is an excellent resource for information and practical matters surrounding autism and mental health www.rcpsych.ac.uk/mental-healt...

'When the last colours of the day
Have from their burning ebbed away,
About that ruin, cold and lone,
The cricket shrills from stone to stone;
And scattering o'er its darkened green,
Bands of fairies may be seen.'
~Walter de la Mare

Over the Hills and Far Away, by Sairie from the album FC1 - The Breeze on the Meadow

After the kind praise from @ryanshirlow.bsky.social yesterday here is our reworking of 'Over The Hills and Far Away'. We wanted to rethink the Georgian jingoistic jolly soldier-boy stance of the original and give the perspective of a WW1 widow.
