"The Bog Shaman: Manchán on Moriarty" an Irish RTE broadcast where the recently late Manchán Magan rifles through the audio recordings of the poet and writer John Moriarty. I met Manchán at St Ethelburgas in London in June. We deeply hit it off. A sad, early passing. www.rte.ie/radio/radio1...

What a fine gesture by the English archaeologist of the Calanais Stones, Gerald Ponting. This is what it looks like to have respect for a community where you have been a guest. If visiting the Isle of Lewis, its community museums are a must, not least at Ravenspoint.
