Historia Szkocji to opowieść o niezłomnych wojownikach, buntach przeciw imperiom i walce o niezależność, która trwa do dziś! W tym odcinku przeniesiemy się na tereny spowite mgłą, gdzie rodziła się tożsamość Szkotów. Przejdziemy przez starożytne czasy Piktów, czasy panowania Rzymian, narodziny Królestwa Alby, epokę wikingów, burzliwe wojny z Anglią, aż po współczesne dążenia do niepodległości. Część I: Kolebka – w krainie mgieł i wojowników Zaczynamy w czasach pierwszych osadników, którzy zamieszkiwali te tereny już tysiące lat temu. Jak wyglądało ich życie w surowym klimacie? • Rzymianie w Szkocji – Gdy potęga Imperium Rzymskiego rozrastała się, napotkała na swojej drodze obrońców z północy Brytanii. Mimo budowy Wału Hadriana i Antonina, Rzymianie nigdy nie podbili całkowicie szkockich ziem. Czym był ten mur i jak wpłynął na rozwój regionu? • Powstanie Królestwa Alby – Jak doszło do utworzenia pierwszego szkockiego państwa? W jaki sposób Kenneth MacAlpin zjednoczył Piktów i Szkotów, tworząc zalążek przyszłej Szkocji? • Era Wikingów – brutalne najazdy Skandynawów, ich osady i wpływ na kulturę oraz politykę regionu. Część II: Unia – krew, pot i miecz Przez wieki Szkoci walczyli o swoją niepodległość, a legendy takich bohaterów jak William Wallace i Robert Bruce do dziś budzą podziw. • Wojna o niepodległość – jak Wallace i Bruce pokonali Anglików? Jakie taktyki stosowali przeciw liczniejszym wojskom króla Edwarda I? • Dynastia Stuartów i Auld Alliance – szkocko-francuski sojusz, który miał powstrzymać Anglię, ale czy rzeczywiście był skuteczny? • Reformacja w Szkocji – dlaczego kraj, który przez wieki był wierny papieżowi, stał się bastionem protestantyzmu? • Unia Koron i Unia 1707 – czy Szkoci dobrowolnie zgodzili się na połączenie z Anglią, czy też zostali do tego zmuszeni? Jakie konsekwencje miał ten akt? Powstania jakobickie i czystki w Highlands Po Unii w 1707 roku nie wszyscy Szkoci pogodzili się z nowym porządkiem. Zwolennicy dynastii Stuartów podjęli próbę odzyskania tronu dla Jakuba II i jego następców. • Pierwsze Powstanie Jakobickie (1715) – dlaczego się nie powiodło? • Drugie Powstanie Jakobickie (1745–1746) – Bonnie Prince Charlie i bitwa pod Culloden – ostateczna klęska, która zmieniła Szkocję na zawsze. • Czystki w Highlands – jak po powstaniach Anglicy brutalnie rozprawili się z góralami, niszcząc ich kulturę i tradycję. Część III: W kilcie ku referendum – nowoczesna Szkocja Szkoci nigdy nie przestali dążyć do niezależności. XX wiek przyniósł zmiany, które odnowiły dyskusję o suwerenności. • Referendum 2014 – dlaczego Szkoci niemal zdecydowali się na odrębne państwo? • Brexit a Szkocja – czy wyjście z UE oznacza nowy impuls dla niepodległości? Część IV: Mitologia, kultura i popkultura Historia Szkocji to nie tylko bitwy i polityka, ale również bogata tradycja folklorystyczna i kulturalna. • Selkie, Kelpie i Potwór z Loch Ness – czy legendy mają ziarnko prawdy? • Kultura klanowa – czym były klany? • Braveheart – fakty i mity – co w filmie było prawdą, a co hollywoodzką fikcją?

What if the moments when you feel like you're falling apart... are actually the moments when you're being called deeper into yourself? In this episode of Courage, Dear Heart, we explore The Call to Descent—the sacred invitation to step beyond the surface and meet ourselves in the depths. Descent is not failure. It is not punishment. It is the feminine path of remembering—a return to truth, wholeness, and the wild, untamed knowing that has always lived within us. We explore:  What descent truly is and why it happens.  The ways we resist it and why surrendering makes it easier.  How grief, rage, and longing are initiations into deeper wisdom.  The power of myth—Inanna, Persephone, and the Selkie—as guides for our own journey.  Why The Call to Descent is the prelude to Sacred Descent, and what it means to step into this work with intention. The Spring Equinox is approaching—a portal into the next chapter, a moment of balance between light and dark. And with it comes the question:  Will you answer the Call to Descent? We begin this Thursday, March 20th, with a 7-day guided journey into the depths—an initiation into trust, surrender, and the wisdom of the unknown.  Join The Call to Descent   Join Sacred Descent Wild Awakening: Understanding Your Feminine Nature - https://www.facebook.com/groups/understandingyourfemininenature Crete Retreat 4-9th May 2025 - https://iamcharliwall.com/wild-awakening-crete-retreat/ Spain Retreat 15-20th September 2025 - https://iamcharliwall.com/wildawakeningretreats/ Wild Awakening Circle Membership - https://iamcharliwall.com/wildawakeningcircle/

Lose yourself in the rugged beauty of the Outer Hebrides with this soothing sleep story, where ancient myths and the rhythm of the sea lull you into deep relaxation.   Jane escapes to a remote island, seeking solitude away from the world.

Wrapped in the legend of the selkies, this peaceful bedtime story will transport you to a place where myth and reality intertwine, and the sound of the sea carries you gently into sleep.   Let the calming sounds of the sea, soft storytelling, and a meditative atmosphere ease your mind, helping you unwind and drift into deep, restful sleep.   If you love immersive sleep stories and guided meditations, subscribe to Your Sleep Guru Podcast for more nature-inspired journeys, binaural beats, and tranquil soundscapes.

The Woman Who Lost Her Skin | A Story of Reclamation There is a moment in every woman's life when she realises she has wandered too far from herself. Maybe she has spent years tending to others, pouring from an empty cup. Maybe she has contorted herself to fit a life that no longer fits her. Maybe she has forgotten what it feels like to belong—to her own body, her own desires, her own truth. In today's episode, we explore the ancient tale of the Selkie—the woman who lost her skin. A wild, untamed being taken from her home, trapped in a life that slowly dries her out. She forgets what she once was… until the ache of remembering calls her back. This story holds a mirror to the ways we, too, lose our skin—our instincts, our feminine essence, our connection to the deep. But what does it take to reclaim ourselves? Join me as we dive into:  The Selkie myth and why it speaks to so many women  How we lose our skin in relationships, work, and daily life  The subtle signs that you are living exiled from yourself  What it means to begin the return—the path home to your own wild knowing If this resonates, I invite you to journey deeper with me inside: Coming Home to Yourself: Healing the Feminine Wounds We Carry March 8th 2025  Listen in, and if this speaks to you, share your reflections in the comments.

In this episode of _Druidcraft 101_, Charlie and Brian, both Christopagan Druids, explore the themes of **blessing, right relationship, and interconnectedness** as they dive into Chapter 2 of _Druidcraft_ by Philip Carr-Gomm. The episode unpacks the **Selkie story**, a folktale that illustrates the contrast between **selfishness and selflessness**, as well as the **Law of the Returning Tide**, which mirrors the natural rhythm of reciprocity and the impact of our actions on the world around us. The hosts discuss **the Web of Wyrd**, an Anglo-Saxon concept of fate and interconnectedness, and relate it to the spiritual path of **mindfulness and intention**. They introduce the analogy of the **spiritual gardener**, emphasizing that cultivating **blessings, love, and prosperity** requires careful nurturing—just like tending a garden. This foundational work prepares practitioners for **deeper magical practices**, teaching them to harness subtle energies and recognize their role in the larger cosmic weave. Charlie and Brian remind listeners that **magic begins with mindfulness**, and skipping these foundational lessons may hinder future magical practice. --- Join and support the community: https://www.creationspaths.com/ Magic starts with mindfulness—learn the way of blessing and the power of the returning tide!

Website: https://chthonia.netPatreon: https://patreon.com/chthoniaMerch: https://chthoniapodcast.creator-spring.com/School: https://instituteforfemininemyth.orgIn this week's episode we look at the seal women of fairy lore, the Selkies. Selkies are beautiful fairies who take off their sealskin to dance by the water. In the stories, a fisherman will see them and steal their sealskin so that they cannot return home. The Selkie is then compelled to be the wife of the fisherman, until she is able to find out where her sealskin is hidden, at which point she retrieves it and returns home again. This story is reflective of the traditional male relationship to the Anima, and how he can never truly possess her by conquering her.

In Dinner for Shoes episode 37, The Wedding Guest Dress of My Dreams, Sarah talks about the Cult Gaia Enid dress she bought on Black Friday years ago, and is finally getting to wear to a wedding in Hydra, Greece. Working with Alteration Specialists Tailor Shop Manager Yaser Elsafty, Sarah transformed the gown to better fit her height and stripped away inches of fabric so that the dress's cape can be tied back for warmer weather. In addition to Cult Gaia, Sarah depends on many different brands for summer wedding looks, including Rhode — the label behind the chili red dress she's wearing. She chats through her top recommendations, enjoys a plethora of dishes you might find on a classic wedding menu from Little Beet, and attempts to calm the cats when they deem themselves wedding crashers and tumble into the reception.

Ariel wanted to be where the people were, but most of the half-human, half-fish sirens of the sea known as mermaids wanted to be left alone. These legendary sea creatures chronicled in maritime cultures since the advent of written history. While legends in various parts of the world differ, there are some common themes, fairly credible sightings, and manatees galore.SOURCESMermaid Tales from Around the World; January 1, 1999; by Mary Pope Osborne (Author), Troy Howell (Illustrator)Mermaids: Myth, Kith and KinBy: Akanksha Singh  December 24, 2022, JSTOR Daily Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/autumn-s-oddities--5307439/support.

Weekly Shoutout: Listen to SPACEWALKERS FFEEATCOPO this instant! -- Hi there, Today I am so excited to be arts calling poet MJ Gomez! About our guest: MJ Gomez is the author of Love Letters from a Burning Planet (Variant Literature, 2023). His poems are featured in Surging Tide, the Dawn Review, Anti-Heroin Chic, the Selkie, and others. You can find him on Twitter @bluejayverses Thanks for this wonderful conversation, MJ! All the best! -- LOVE LETTERS FROM A BURNING PLANET, now available from Variant Lit! https://variantlit.com/product/love-letters/ PRAISE FOR LOVE LETTERS FROM A BURNING PLANET: In his scintillating debut, MJ Gomez weighs love against grief, grief against god, and asks: which governs what? Replete with sensuous pauses and lush imagery, Love Letters _unravels pointedly and fearlessly, the way you would at 2 a.m. on a Wednesday, wine-drunk and unable to shake the rumor of a world you once built for someone. —Letitia Jiju, poet and editor for _Psaltery & Lyre From its initial holy invocation of the poet's name through the course of its burning and urgent trajectory, Love Letters from a Burning Planet sees MJ Gomez detail the intricate inner workings of a “palace of flame” in what can only be described as a triumphant debut. Poignant and deliberate at every turn, Gomez circles the body in an act of poetic ceremony, executed with heart-rending care. At its core, Love Letters reminds us: “[the] truth is we are all immortal except for our bodies.” —NAT RAUM, author of the abyss is staring back MJ Gomez's love letters from a burning planet crackles with language that sings and singes. “What should become of Man?” Gomez asks, and through self-portraits and studies, love letters and invocations, deftly answers: “a man is a song.” This is a radiant collection of poems that orbits devotion in all its pleasures and pains. Here are poems that bend light to make music. Here is a voice unafraid to speak in a world aflame. —Sarah Ghazal Ali, author of Theophanies Electric, grand, and merciful. With blunt precision, Love Letters from a Burning Planet by MJ Gomez interrogates our human devotions to each other, and to the world. His debut reckons with the expanse of passion, of intimacy, and of love: “Magic doesn't need to be real. / This body is enough, I swear.” Every poem brings new landscapes of memory to contend with these facts, overflowing with the worldly case of our own dissatisfactions and hopeless desires. Every poem traverses faith: religious, interpersonal, and individual. Gomez writes a universe beautiful and so, so human. “I send to you a flame / like a bullet / repenting.” —Daniel Liu, author of COMRADE -- Arts Calling is produced by Jaime Alejandro (cruzfolio.com).

I'm so happy to introduce you to my friend and fellow sea lover Helen Armstrong, aka The Wandering Selkie.  Photographer, outdoor swimmer and advocate for joy, and playful living.  Celebrating Ireland, being active outdoors, and most importantly, the community and the connections that come with it.Selkies are found in Celtic and Norse mythology (also silkie, sylkie, selchie) or selkie folk, meaning seal folk.  Selkies are mythological beings, capable of therianthropy, changing from seal to human form by shedding their skin.  The seal people, once upon the shore, were said to have danced in the moonlight.  Sadly, after this, the selkie story usually has darker, tragic aspects.  Sometimes they fall in love and give their seal skin willingly to their partner to store away safely, or it's taken from them.  Either way, when their seal skin is taken away, the selkie loses their identity, their power and is trapped in human form.  Helen told me "When I slip into the water, I get a feeling of being at home.  (Maybe after the initial, “Why do I do this?" questioning phase as you wade out).  I feel in my element in the sea, relaxed, at peace and at ease.  Feeling held by the water, enjoying feeling small as I float and look out to the wide horizon.  Being immersed in nature, feeling the cold tingle my skin, the wind or rain on my face.  Cloud watching.  Bird watching.  Listening to the movement of the water, or squeals and shouts of swimmers on their way in!  Seeing the popularity of outdoor swimming rocket during the pandemic & the almost universally positive effect on new swimmers, shows that the benefits are undeniable."Starting in July 2020, I began a daily dipping challenge and finished 365 daily dips in July 2021.  I'd had a private account until then, but changed to public to connect with the swim community and share my swims & adventures.  That's when The Wandering Selkie was created.  Lockdown travel restrictions lifted during the challenge and I delighted in the freedom again to roam to dip in other wild waters, at different spots along the coastline, inland at loughs and mountain waterfalls."You can connect with Helen on Instagram and share her adventures.We hope you adore this episode and find it supportive for your journey towards a deeper relationship with yourself, love, abundance, your magick and creating a wider foundation for your business to prosper.

In this episode, we continue our look at Irish creatures from folklore! The Kelpie is a traditional water horse, the most famous of which is Nessie, the Loch Ness Monster of Scotland. But Ireland has its fair share of lake monsters, with the kelpie being the most well-known. The Selkie is another lake monster, but more of a seal that can shapeshift into human form. The Dullahan is more of a specter, a supernatural entity, a headless horseman (or coachman) of Irish mythology. Finally we discuss the far darrig, a creature similar to a leprechaun, but wearing all red and seemingly even more mischievous. #cryptozoology #folklore #kelpie #selkie #dullahandylan Links!

We're thrilled to be welcoming mythologist and author, Dr Sharon Blackie back to the podcast today, to take another journey into the mythic imagination together. We explore how the ancient myths of our land weave us into connection with ourselves as natural, cyclical creatures, to our place in the world, and to the wisdom of our ancestral lineage. Many of you will have read and loved Sharon's 2016 book, ‘If Women Rose Rooted', and today we look at three of the ancient stories through a menstrual cycle awareness / conscious menopause lens, including; What the ‘Well Maiden' shows us about how to act as a bridge to restore the Feminine in our world, particularly by cultivating the skill of listening to the wisdom of our dreams.  How the wild character of ‘Mis' can guide us to find solace in the wilderness, particularly during the phases of our cycles and lives which can be full of grief and are often misunderstood by "civilisation", like the premenstruum and menopause. How the story of the ‘Selkie' can inspire us to reclaim our wildness, our authenticity and our sense of belonging.---Receive our free video training: Love Your Cycle, Discover the Power of Menstrual Cycle Awareness to Revolutionise Your Life - www.redschool.net/love---The Menstruality Podcast is hosted by Red School.

Happy St. Patrick's Day week! Today on the podcast we'll be exploring a medley of stories, with audio taken from the many episodes I've done in the past on Celtic legends and folklore, including the story of Oisin and Niamh and the land of Tir na Nog, the land of Eternal Youth, and Oisin's famed debate with St. Patrick. We'll learn about the abandoned Irish island of Blasket and get lost in some eerie beautiful Selkie stories. We will also explore the famous and outstandingly beautiful Book of Kells - what was once described as 'the work of angels, not of man.' We'll hear about one of Ireland's patron saints' St. Columbia and how he rebuked the Loch Ness Monster and at the end of the episode we'll enjoy some Yeats poetry readings.  If you'd like to really get in the Irish spirit, I hope you'll consider joining me and Christy Isinger in Ireland this coming October!  May the road rise up to meet you. May the wind be always at your back. May the sun shine warm upon your face; the rains fall soft upon your fields and until we meet again, may God hold you in the palm of His hand. ---- www.bornofwonder.com  www.mediamarqcreative.com Born of Wonder Substack Come to Ireland with me in October 2024!  ----   Discussions -  "TÍR NA NÓG: THE STORY OF NIAMH AND OISÍN" "AN OLD WOMAN'S REFLECTIONS" BY PEIG SAYERS  "THE PEOPLE OF THE SEA" BY DAVID THOMPSON "SONG OF THE SEA" MOVIE - TRAILER - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HgbXWt8kM5Q    Music:   "The Road to Lisdoonvarna and Scollay's" - Pinniped  - Free Music Archive "Fanny Power" - Slainte - Free Music Archive "Mike in the Wilderness" - played by Katie Marquette Guitar and piano music underneath poetry - played by Chris Marquette   Recommendation:  The Poetry of William Butler Yeats "The Stolen Child" - https://poets.org/poem/stolen-child "When You are Old" - https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/43283/when-you-are-old    "Bobby Kennedy for President" 4 part series on Netflix    Book of Kells Digitized https://digitalcollections.tcd.ie/concern/works/hm50tr726?locale=en    The Book of Kells: An Illustrated Introduction to the Manuscript in Trinity College, Dublin https://www.thriftbooks.com/w/the-book-of-kells-an-illustrated-introduction-to-the-manuscript-in-trinity-college-dublin_bernard-meehan/280151/item/3948978/?gclid=CjwKCAjw4ayUBhA4EiwATWyBrjt-fV0U2k2xk4lZyVhyVYSTlxdqhhVGHi5NlmEVmte4v6Jrx6Ca9xoC9ZcQAvD_BwE#idiq=3948978&edition=4421796

Come Adventure With Me Lyrics and music Marc Gunn There's a secret door to a hall unknown Inside are fears that Turn me to stone Do I step forward Or head back home Which is the path for me I raise my head and Take one step more The ground it shakes. I look back to the door Feel like I'm caught and stuck to the floor And so I cut myself free * This world's a treasure that is full of strife Every moment can enrich your life Just face your dragons with the edge of a knife It's a better life you see Come adventure with me. There are ugly goblins doing scary things Deep down in dungeons there are magic rings Live or die with the riddles we bring You'll find your way through the dark My Precious life Has so many memories Fluttering birds, butterflies in trees My home is comfort, comfort is a breeze But there's another way to live So many wars. It's an endless fight To slay our dragons that soar through our night But I'm no coward. I'll do what is right. Before I make my way home. Now I'm back with stories that ring A truth That soars up on eagle wings Let's not forget the songs elves sing Oh the joy that they bring! 25:25 - Marc Gunn “Come Adventure With Me” from Come Adventure With Me 29:54 - CLOSING Thanks for listening to Pub Songs & Stories.

Tonight we welcome the winner of Story Wars: After Dark! Sandwich shares her journey as a writer; how it feels to get back into the hobby after becoming a parent; and the kind of chutzpah it takes to walk into a stranger's basement and record a podcast. Stories begin around the 18:15 mark and include a gross dudebro; a woman who finds out her husband is not who she thought he was; a meditation on killing taboos; and a day in the life of a tortured academic.  From Brewer's Dictionary of Phrase and Fable:  Selkie (From Scottish English sealgh, 'seal'). In the folklore of the Orkney and Shetland islands, a seal-like sea creature with the capacity to take human form on land. Super- stitions against killing seals often had the selkie as their rationale. Check out our website for a featured story from this week's episode, and be sure to follow us on Instagram (if that's your sort of thing).

This week on the Infernal Schoolhouse Podcast, hosts Bryan and Aaron welcome Chelsey the Selkie, a game master who seamlessly integrates her lovely watercolor art into her storytelling. Chelsey shares her unique approach, revealing how her artwork enhances the immersive quality of tabletop role-playing games for both seasoned gamers and newcomers alike.  Chelsey can be found on Twitch where she streams regularly, at her Etsy store, and on Instagram.   

The Selkie swims ashore at night, sheds her seal skin, hides it, and delights in her human form. In Celtic lore, she is the wild feminine soul, a creature of land and sea, innocent and beautiful, who cannot thrive in domesticity.   In folklore, the seal-folk are discovered by humans. Their natural, joyous spirit, grace, and affection invite contact. Humans are drawn to them, but if they touch, parting is unbearable. Many a young man, desperate to maintain the life-giving embrace of nature, steals a Selkie's seal skin, locking her into a human form. Helpless, she is led into domesticity and motherhood. Isolated from the sea, in a role alien to her nature, the Selkie declines until her seal-skin is reclaimed. Called home to the sea, she leaves all behind and is restored to her true nature.  The theft of the Selkie's skin is a kind of archetypal initiation. Our naive spirits are all too often robbed and captured through lack of foresight. We lose touch with our wild spirit as we accept our assigned social roles, accommodate the compromises of marriage, and forget what we once loved. Drained and disaffected, midlife may call us into our inner wilderness to renew and restore our original being.  We lose our connection to life-giving instincts slowly. Attending the family alma mater, selecting a sensible career, and sacrificing our wildness to corporate culture can leave our souls withered. Deprived of the water of life, we may abandon everything once we find our true skin and smell the brine carried on the east wind. In the ancient stories, seal-folk were male and female, and either might find themselves trapped through naïve curiosity. For young men and women, innocence is unrewarded in the adult world and often leads us into harsh agreements that force us to abandon our intuition and accept domestication. We turn from our inner world and stare only at the culture. Deep desire is replaced by snacking on what has been advertised. Our uncouth delight is curated into meticulous etiquette.   When we neglect the animal side, the unconscious tries to call us back. Injured animals surface in our dreams, along with roaring vague creatures that chase us and savage impulses prompting us to bite and claw. If we linger too long in alien domesticity, emptiness, exhaustion, and neglect may drive us to chew our way out of our current situation. But actions of last resort might be avoided by learning to listen to the wild one within. Carving out time in nature, setting unyielding boundaries, and questioning societal expectations are vital to our true nature. If we are sons and daughters of the open water, we need time off, solitude, and uninterrupted periods of self-reflection. Art, music, and poetry can call forward our seal-like nature, granting us deep relief.  Listen to your seal-song and answer it.  HERE'S THE DREAM WE ANALYZE: “I requested to present to local government an opportunity to help people out with repair and replacement of septic tanks if they couldn't afford it, including replacement of caps to prevent toddlers from falling in and drowning. The Chief Executive, an inexperienced and clueless fellow, introduced me to their new consultant, who looked just like the guy who played Prospero in my senior year production of The Tempest; I played Caliban. The guy was good-looking but a terrible actor who never studied and couldn't seem to memorize his lines. As the consultant to our local government, he informed me that to make any assistance possible for people in need, I'd have to first make a public presentation pledging I would worship Thanatos and Eros and that I would only award assistance to those who also swore their religious allegiance to Thanatos and Eros. I was outraged and stomped out. My friend, who is in the same field and with whom I often collaborate, sat in the audience calmly taking notes. I asked her if she would do it, and she said she didn't see any problem with it, which I thought was completely out of character, as she is a very principled woman who stands up to anything unethical. I woke up angry and a little confused.” MEET LISA IN COLUMBUS OHIO on October 13 & 14, 2023 The Power of Dreamwork – Friday Night Lecture (October 13 from 7 to 8:30 PM) and Saturday Workshop (October 14 from 9:30 AM to Noon): CLICK HERE.

Will be starting the feast day with a Mass then full Irish breakfast!!" Adam Young replied: "Hi Marc -  - I'm usually working while listening, doing graphic design work or something similar...or just sitting and concentrating on the music itself. I've got two gigs on St. Patrick's Day, so I'll be out in the pubs (2 - 5 pm and 8 - 10 pm) in Sydney, NS, and joining a fellow artist (who you've featured recently), Mary Beth Carty, at her session in the morning. That's also how I'm celebrating the culture through music this St. Patrick's Day!  Our focus is more Scottish music, but we'll be throwing as much Irish into the mix as we possibly can...and staying away from green beer and pots of gold and leprechauns... Best of luck on the show(s)! Thanks" Roger replied: "Greetings Marc from Kendal UK  its snowing. been making a Shepherds Pie for tea while listening to the last episode with the odd stop to practise my bodhran against a song... i need lots of practice... keep up your good work. your podcast is essential listening especially if you have a ceiling to wall paper. best regards"
