I have been exploring the word mores its explanation makes me think.
the essential or characteristic customs and conventions of a society or community:
"an offence against social mores"
It also ties up with the testimonials of the Hippies of Hebden Bridge in a pdf file in an earlier blog.
digventurer at Lindisfarne An interesting link, that most holy of Islands Lindisfarne has been the subject of archaeological digging for 10 years by Digventurer and if rings on a bone finger does not worry you, the artefacts found are fascinating.
Is Zack Polanski to be the new messiah for the Green Party. Well he is certainly swanning around in the publicity media at the moment. He is definitely a good figure for the young and even has the right credentials - gay, and vegan, plus being an actor at one stage. Plenty of political work, he is part of the London Assembly, of which I know little about. Interesting times in the Green Party.

I have long believed that the quartz pebbles (from 40 miles away) at Newgrange were NOT used to build it, but were offerings in memory of family/people buried there. Some fascinating finds at Lindisfarne.
ReplyDeleteLindisfarne has a lot of history, I find the saints and Scandinavian input the most interesting Jennie. But yes, quartz stone brought to the prehistoric grave would be perfectly natural thing to do. Same as the remains of flowers that are occasionally seen.
DeleteI assume Polanski is somewhat charismatic too, which goes a long way in politics, whatever party they are from.
ReplyDeleteYes very charismatic, he should appeal to a lot of people and funnily enough he is not sharing the leadership chair with another leader.
ReplyDeleteThose discoveries are so interesting and I can imagine how excited those diggers get when they come across these amazing finds.
ReplyDeleteIt is hard work being a digger Ellen, working under the sun but great fun as well.
