Goodnight from Paul Hayes, the valves of his radio set-up glowing in anticipation of capturing transmissions from ghost cosmonauts. Goodnight from Appledown Farm, its sleepers dream-shivered as one of the Folk Without Shadows glides the lane. Goodnight from Hookland.

The local island pub has been colloquially renamed "The Strait of Hormuz". Because no one knows if it is open or closed.

The first of May was sacred to Beltené, one of the names of the god of Death, the god who gives life to men and takes it away from them again. Thus it was on the feast day of this god that the sons of Miled began their conquest of Ireland.” Source: Myths & Legends of the Celtic Race by T. W. 3/4

An island art work in progress by Mona O'Driscoll of Sherkin Island. Mona stood in each spot, dropped a GPS marker, added a short note on the name & story. Maps are not the territory but Mona's art work is her island life & spaces that she maps.

This video of a Ukrainian Yak-52 crew taking down drones with a shotgun is incredible, but the music is deeply, and profoundly inappropriate. There was really only one option. So I've fixed it.
