Thread: Saturday is Imbolc, which celebrates the first day of Spring in Ireland. It is an ancient Gaelic-Celtic feast & is also marked as St Bridget’s Day, its Christian re-incarnation. In schools children make Bridget’s crosses to celebrate it. (pictured: Hill of Tara)

I don’t know about you tulips, but after struggling thru a damp grey Dublin January morning, I really think we need a light festival. If everyone covered their windows in Christmas tree lights*, & battery candles, it would lift the spirits!

But of course, I was a fool and yes Apple has been stealing your private conversations and selling them.
