I made this at #navanfort #emainmacha on Friday. It's made out of #hazel and it's how #bronzeage people used to fasten their clothes. Just twist a length into a circle, pull the fabric through and push the stick through the loop of fabric... ingenious! It had a second use, too... hazel contains the chemical from which aspirin is made. People who had hangovers from all that feasting and drinking mead (or wine or ale) would chew a piece of hazel to help relieve their headache! 😄

The culprit which kept me reading till 3am this morning! Couldn't sleep till I read the last page, and then couldn't sleep for thinking about it. A beautiful story with my favourite kind of ending. 💕

Do I feel lucky? Well, do I? Thus far I have shared your video on my facebook, a rare effort for sure. I do not “like” many and share less, but this tickled.
Your hero I need to read on, his life takes place hundreds of years before my little anti-heros arrive on the scene.
Keep up the writing! Perhaps you and I will sit together someday on a panel of authors.
Or I may just sit in the audience and wave like a madman on too much coffee until you notice me.
(Then have me hauled out by security)
