This is St Agnes Holy Well at Cothelstone Somerset dated somewhere between 1300-1500 AD. It’s a Well that is associated with love and fertility and on the eve of the Feast of St Agnes on 21st January virgins would go there and use various divinations methods to discover their true love. The locals have become to be warry of the Well as it’s believed that Pixies live there however that didn’t stop them in the 1980’s from restoring it and from holding regular Well Blessings there. It has been described as the prettiest Well in Somerset and I would have to agree, it was especially nice to be greeted by a pair of buzzards who circled over us wondering I’m sure what we were up to in their field.

Pikies. Piano.

TLC has this new show called My Big, Fat Gypsy Wedding. As interesting as it is, I suppose, I sorta don't like it. As far as I've seen, it covers the lifestyle of Irish gypsies, aka Pikies. Personally, I'd much rather hear about other gypsy cultures. To be honest, Pikies are some of the trashiest people I've ever seen. I could be wrong. They probably aren't that bad, but this show isn't doing them any favors. If someone could maybe shed some light on their lifestyle/culture, that would be lovely.

I'm gonna go play piano for a bit. Leave me some love while I'm gone.
