@Jimzovich1 @BiggerMaas And that is why there is @ReptonGuide too. The city talks to me in the languages of traffic stutter, the shake of trains across bridges and in the underground growl heard in basements.

@Ph1lomena @FolkloreThurs I was going to avoid posting to Folklore Thursday today – it seemed a bit wrong to interject when there are so many fabulous female folklorists, but I am now inspired to post some of the female saints venerated in the county.

From Fathom Brides to Wren Dancers, the Misrules Maidens to May Queens, the lore of the land is sung strong by the sopranos and contraltos of the Albionic choir. – #CLNolan #FolkloreThursday Picture of May Queen courtesy of the Hookland Museum of Curiosities. https://t.co/jkV0Vozbt8

@ColneyHatch @Peculiar I can think of 16 not on the list that are relevant to Repton and will no doubt feature in some for or the other.

Punch and Judy has it regional variations. In Hookland, most shows feature ‘the ghost baby’, a character usually absent in tellings of the tale on other coasts. https://t.co/rhww4bdsy7

@jckmrphy I’m fond of that book, it was much enjoyed as a child, but I’ve struggled to read it in recent years.
