@SydMoore1 Yes, the space between you and others in rural England is often filled with self-scorn. We have to dispel the lie that the countryside brings out the best in us

Sorry for being an idiot and possibly ruining this.

The Shan part of the name is mystery to etymologists. Some say it is borrowed from Romany and means half – as it does with shandy. Others claim it means bubbling or false, again as in shandy. Whether shanlew means half-lion, false-lion or bubbling-lion I leave to your judgement.

In a county with a Dolls‰Ûª Graveyard and a haunted Dolls‰Ûª Hospital, the story of Tabitha Lowe and her doll Tanith is not unsurprising. However, even by Hookland standards, it is disturbing. – #CLNolan https://t.co/r1gEa1gV3A
