One thought on “A bunch of things, some wondrous, some sad

  1. You’ve made a really bad impression on me by coming into what is effectively my online front room without introducing yourself, and posting what are almost trollish comments about climate change and Irish history.

    If you want to change that, I’m looking for genuine information on the Elizabethan court and its attitude to Irish chieftains, and would appreciate any real sources.
