#WyrdWednesday In Medieval times monks used Mandrake Root in elixirs to cure all sorts of ailments, from ulcers to asthma to arthritis. It was thought to have magical properties, and today is refined into hyosine, the main preoperative sedative used in hospitals around the world.
Today is St Mark's Eve, the 'spookiest day of the year after Halloween.' Folklore tells us that the ghosts of those doomed to die in the coming year will join a 'procession of the dead' from their local church between 11pm & 1am. Keep your eyes peeled if you're out after dark...

#OTD in 2018, the first statue of a woman on London's Parliament Square was unveiled. 🇬🇧 In 1918, Millicent Fawcett played a key role in securing women older than 30 the right to vote. She was commemorated outside British Parliament, which was already home to 11 statues of men.
Whenever I see a spot like this in a garden, I always want to take a good book to read. Wouldn't this be a lovely spot to read, daydream or just soak in the beauty?
All was gloom, and silent all, Save now and then the still foot-fall Of one returning homewards late, Past the echoing minster-gate. —John Keats, The Eve of St Mark Tonight is St Mark’s Eve when ghosts of those fated to die during the year are witnessed in churchyards.
