Dydd Gwyl Dewi Hapus, John. xx I've never heard of corpse candles before.
ReplyDeleteA lovely start to the morning, thankyou.
ReplyDeleteI hope your day includes leeks...the tradition before the Victorians decided that a daff would be more respectable!!
I've never heard of corpse candles, or seen the phenomenon, for that matter. Thanks for enlightening me.
ReplyDeleteHappy St. David's day, and I hope it's as bright, warm and sunny, in deepest North Wales, as it is here. xx
Spunkie? Along the grapevine I have heard that that was the very nickname that trainee nurses privately gave you when you were a charge-nurse in Sheffield.
ReplyDeleteI did not know that about St David! And thanks for the video -- "Eres Tu" has always been a favourite of mine, such a beautiful melody.
ReplyDeleteHappy Saint David's Day.
ReplyDeleteDydd Gŵyl Dewi hapus xx
ReplyDeleteCorpse candles?
ReplyDeleteI hope you never do see that blue light.
Don't you hate it when it's always other people who see phenomena or have meaningful or astounding visions! -Kate
ReplyDeleteWillo-wisp??
ReplyDeleteI'd not known of those traditions or of corpse candles so appreciate those tidbits of knowledge.
ReplyDeleteTime to change the calendars for those of us who still have paper calendars!
Hugs!
That's macabre--you'll have to revisit ''corpse candle" for Halloween.
ReplyDeleteI've heard of foxfire, but never corpse fire! Wales is a mysterious place full of foggy legends.
ReplyDeleteThank you for that wonderful reel! It is one of my very favorite pieces of music.
ReplyDeleteI also love learning these special things about your country. It really is so interesting. X
