There is so much to digest and ponder on from your writings. Tears for the people of Palestine. I had never heard of Crossbones graveyard but will endeavour to visit it next year. Thank you for raising my awareness with your words.

I am enjoying your writing so much and I absolutely loved this piece. Thank you for your words on Palestine. People have asked me why I look at all the disturbing footage and I will now tell them that I’m honouring the Palestinian people with my eyes. Your words about the Geese reminded me of the song by Natalie Merchant called ‘Hunting the Wren’. I don’t think she wrote it but it is another powerful honouring of the hidden treatment of women prostitutes. Thank you 🙏🏼

Thank you so much, Allie. I am so grateful for your reading and commenting. It's such an encouragement. Praying for us to live to see a free Falasteen. I must listen to that song. Thank you!

It is already Stir Up Sunday here & I have just baked my own version of Cattern cakes (almond muffins with caraway seeds & currants GF). I combined stir-up Sunday and St Catherine’s day. We shall enjoy the cakes tomorrow.

Your words are so moving to read. Thankyou again.

Being in Australia i sometimes feel a bit removed from the world.

You are already resisting then by remembering to keep Cattern. It's already Stir Up Sunday here too, as I have somehow taken up writing in the middle of the night. I am very much hoping to stir something up after I've slept though.

And thank you so much for reading and commenting. I found this really hard to write, for all manner of reasons, and it's such an encouragement to know that you're there. I hope that your Cattern cakes are delicious!

If I lived close, I’d pop some in a basket and bring them to you 💫 just like Mrs March from Little Women xxx
