My name is Oz
and wen you see
my big ol' legs
before thee
take a moment
to despair.
Cos you won't find
my trunk nowhere.

A rattle from ancient Mesopotamia, shaped like a pie crust or shell from the late third or early second millennium BCE. X-ray images show three pellets inside.
Quite a number of rattles have been unearthed in the region, some even shaped like animals.

Now I hear there is some holy juice
That St. Nick leaks, for our festive use
But you don't really care for bone broth, do you?
It goes down slow, it comes up green
The added wine doesn't help a thing
From Heaven the baffled saint cries, "Ugh, don't drink it"

The bones of Santa have been leaking liquid for 1,700 years.

It is New Washing Machine Day, which means that some guys will arrive to install it, and then I will spend the remainder of today too afraid to turn it on and use it, because it is NEW and might EXPLODE or something

"This was a sort of event I’d never been to before. Something focused, but spontaneous ... This was a community of strangers who had become a community, after barely exchanging a word."
The Wicker Man was released this week in December 1973.
Fifty years after the fictional date of the clifftop singalong sacrifice, we went to be the village pub band for a re-enactment, and I wrote this piece to try and capture a flavour of that moment.

In this wonderful new essay, Donna Glee Williams looks at how the Hero's Journey failed her, forcing a rethink about the whole way it's conceptualised for fiction and in real life... because "real heroes run in packs."

wish kids would stop saying 6-7 and instead joke about something more useful such as 'please remember The MERL's Acacia Road car park entrance is currently closed due to emergency water repairs'

I enjoyed answering this particularly writing "all should get a reduction to their entry time, or none, you shouldn't be able to buy your way or have to perform tricks for the state to have dignity" and adding for vulnerable groups "anyone fleeing a country we sold arms to"
The public consultation on "Earned Settlement" is open until the 12th February, for anyone who wants to get their two cents in, though it's pretty clear from the leading nature of the questions that they've already decided. www.gov.uk/government/c...
Earned settlement
The government is consulting on how the current settlement system should be reformed and how those reforms should be implemented.

The public consultation on "Earned Settlement" is open till the 12th February, the questions are incredibly leading, but if you love me at all (i.e. a recent citizen who's invested in future of this place just as much as you), your input is worthwhile.

3 years ago, with no warning, a brilliant orange farm cat wandered over from the draughty barn where he had been living, in rural Cornwall, and decided he wanted to live with us instead.
We decided to call him Jim.
This is the first photo I took of him, on that night: December 1st, 2022.
