As summer ends and autumn begins a small posy for followers and droppers in who then drop out on a getting darker earlier each night, night.

@brdgeeeeee @harrietgendall These are 'cili' - depictions of the #rice #goddess Dewi Sri, delicately plaited from palm leaves. Symbolising life and prosperity, #DewiSri has been worshipped in #Bali, #Java and elsewhere in the Indonesian archipelago for hundreds (if not thousands) of years.

@harrietgendall @Corn_mother Do you happen to have more info on these dolls? My friend inherited this one photographed and we’d love to learn more about it... are they common, valuable, sought after?

1/2 For first week in 20 years I begin a Monday morning NOT working for a newspaper. Thanks to industry cuts my tenure at Western Morning News has finished and I start week working on exciting new projects for myself and also looking out for new opportunities

@martinhesp We DO care, and will miss you tremendously (and, of course, your articles). I am sure that you'll be in print again (don't know where...don't know when) and we look forward to more of your written pieces. XXXG

Blimey! In 24 hours since I announced that I no longer work for Western Morning News I’ve had getting on for 400 messages of support (private and public) on social media. And there was me thinking we lived in world that no longer cared. Thank you all hugely…
