@ShikikanG11 @fectin @JNMezzo @laserboat999 No, you’re wrong. I know all about existing medieval Consolatios designed to process grief. Social expectations were different and private expressions of grief that remain - in women’s letters and diaries - don’t match outward pious expressions of saintly forbearance,

@ShikikanG11 @fectin @JNMezzo @laserboat999 Wow. And told them that their grief was unseemly. How evil of them.

@fectin @JNMezzo @laserboat999 They didn’t expect it really. They all desperately hoped it wouldn’t happen but the church told them that they should be happy their child would have gone to heaven so they couldn’t be outwardly too sad.

@SilenceInPolish This happened to my grandfather and his family, when he was 14. He told me little bits about it but it’s only with the modern invasion of Ukraine that I realise how bloodless he made it for me.

@danny_robins @BBCTwo @MeeraSyal @bbcstudios @_EvelynHollow @ciaranokeeffe I liked hearing from Meera. Her comments were really thoughtful.

@danny_robins @BBCTwo @BBCiPlayer Just a thought on the first auditory phenomenon. Talking in sibilants is speaking in a kind of hissing whisper. So it might be that Sybil heard a sibilant whisper?

@frontlinekit @Ewan_Valentine Maybe try some magnesium supplements?

@frontlinekit Just sent £30 x

@DavidMuttering @guywalters Nantes pour moi

@Rainmaker1973 That dog looks like it’s holding on for dear life…

@DiaryofaSickGrl @Memeulous I had a black one of these and ruddy loved it!

@adhdjesse “Could do better.”

@ichthys30 Yep. I stopped doing all the running in several groups and they all vanished

@benryanwriter We used to host a lot more too, with similar results. We stopped doing evening meals and started doing relaxed Sunday lunches so kids could come too and it wasn’t intimidating. Still v few invites back - so we only host for really good friends now!

@supertanskiii Suella’s beard is coming on well

@Grizzlegutweed1 @zarahandley @TheHistoryMouse Yes, they’re called skeps

@weirddalle Absolutely beautiful and soothing work. Would be lovely to see them strung together in colour coded garlands and hung about the room

@Enderfay Yeah, I’d need a bit of a run up at it. I hope the bedtime gost would be accommodating…

@woofknight Archaeological actress - easy combination to manage

@Enderfay BUT now you developed a plan of action from a very early point so you’re fully prepared!
