Quote from: Silver Tabby on Today at 10:42:02 AMBe sure to look after your wells!

"One year in the Presbyterians times during the civil wars, they neglected the annual  dressing of the salt-well in Driotwich - and the spring became dry, to the great loss of the town.  So thereafter they revived their annual custom (notwithstanding the power of the parliament) and ever since, volens nolens the Minister there ( and also the soldiers) they did and will Dress it, and the salt water returned again and still continues."

c1688

(volens nolens = Latin = willing/unwilling)

A bit like my old school motto: Possumus Volumus = we can and we will
(er, not a posh school, just a local grammar school)!

This site's being rather slow today.  Anyone else?

Quote from: Raven on Today at 05:44:02 PMIf you have a river or loch near you but away from the town, that's a good place to go. They reflect off the water.
I've got a pond in the back garden.  Will that do?

Chastened by this sad affair Val became a nun
Unaware til later her oven held a bun
She told Mother Superior it was a gift from up above
For Jesus son of God was her one true love
The nuns all cheered and Hallelujah they all sung
