  • Interview with Greg from Twirling in the Light

    Hello Dear Reader, I hope you are having a pleasant Saturday. It’s nice to see you have ventured back after the rants in my last two posts. No ranting today, I promise :-) Instead I have a request.

    If you have a spare minute, could you pop along to icons.org.uk and vote for Thornborough Henges, an incredibly beautiful and archeologically important site in North Yorkshire which currently faces the threat of being turned into a gravel quarry. You can read more about Thornbrough here, but basically the site is extremely significant, ranking along with Stonehenge in terms of importance. The plan to quarry Thornborough has fortunately met with set backs recently, but the site is not completely out of danger yet.

    BTW, I’ve been at those online quizzes again. This time I discovered which fairytale princess I was. I must say, I was surprised to find I was princess material at all LOL

    princess belle
    Princess Belle, from Beauty and the Beast.

    She quickly fetched some water and poured it over him without stopping. Then he jumped up and was instantly transformed into a handsome prince. They got married, and the musicians began to play again, and the summer side of the garden appeared in its splendor, and the black cloth was all ripped down, and together they lived happily ever after.

    Which FAIRY TALE PRINCESS are you?
