things are remembered differently
@Lines_Landscape @fellranger1 There are rare places and tell their stories with grace. The blessing of not losing lives to the World Wars is often still palpable in more than the obvious monuments.

@Lines_Landscape @fellranger1 The trauma of war felt in either sorrow or relief are one of the many emotional layers in the long memory of the English village that we get to encounter. I am always a little honoured and chastened when I go through one.

@wildonion @fellranger1 @darrenhayman It is a brilliant project, but last time I used a Grateful village (not all of them used the term Thankful) in a fictional context, he became so abusive I actually had to screenshot the abuse and I nearly reported him to the Arts Council.

@wildonion @fellranger1 @darrenhayman I am a working class man with generations of ‘don’t grass’ knocked into me, but the attack was so sustained, irrational and unpleasant, I seriously thought about reporting him. He blocked me before any proper discussion of his behaviour could be had.

@wildonion @fellranger1 @darrenhayman That I noted in the diary years back, retained the screenshots – largely in case anyone else ever pointing out that Thankful was not the only phrase used and there were a few villages he had not encountered got abused and needed evidence – tells me he is the last thing I need.

@wildonion @fellranger1 @darrenhayman Sorry to respond in such a way. I find Thankful?Gateful/Blessed villages fascinating and I don’t think anyone who does a project on them, even a brilliant one, should act as proprietary about a piece of shared history.

@Rebecca52731232 @PhilH86835657 I am not talking wonky shortbread Stonehenge here, I am talking Magical Mehirs where we forget history and use a lovely sugar coat like Party Rings – Men al Tols – over the splelt biscuit base.
