The Potato Famine

It does not seem very popular

The Potato Famine

I never heard of pease bread

Getting Children into Gardening

Thank you for your comment below in answer to my previous observation and question.

Your comment three boxes down advises us that "Medwyn's of Angelsey...rents a site containing several greenhouses."

Might that site already have maintained Bangor-University greenhouses or might those Bangor-University greenhouses have been moved from a Bangor University-owned site to a site owned otherwise?

Catholic Prayer

Thank you for your comment below in answer to my previous observation and question.

The genealogical lists in the Pentateuch absent from the three-year cycle of Mass-reading the Bible intrigues me.

During that three-year period is it hoped that parishioners will read those lists on their own?

Staying Human

Thank you for your comment below in answer to my previous observation and question.

The first paragraph to the second subheading, A catholic vision, describes Mother Teresa as having "disbelieved in women priests."

Did Mother Teresa give a reason for her disbelief?

The Potato Famine

Thank you to Frank and Veronica for the comments below in answer to my previous observation and question.

It intrigues me that neither one of you identifies pease bread as popular today.

What is pease-bread?

Why Be Religious?

Your introductory paragraph alerts us to " problems of church attendance in Europe."

Are there particular countries with low attendance?

Understanding Cricket

Thank you for your comment below in answer to my previous observation and question.

Online sources associate Unitedstatesian baseball with English cricket and rounders. They call the latter a children's game.

Online images feature Unitedstatesian, not British Isles-er-like, bats for rounders.

Is it possible that a childhood love for rounders leads to a grown-up love for Unitedstatesian baseball?

Or is there no such thing as baseball teams among east-side ponders?

What is happening when we read

Thank you for your comment below in answer to my previous observation and question.

Educational materials intrigue me. What might their subjects have been?

Who Was Robin Hood?

Thank you for your comment below in answer to my previous observation and question.

Robin Hood lived so long ago that he probably lodges already in heavenly or hellish afterlife.

May I suppose that it perhaps saddens a collateral- or direct-line descendant, who stresses over the crime of stealing from the rich -- instead of non-criminally suggesting to the rich that they willingly share their wealth ;-D -- to serve that wealth to the poor that Robin Hood might not be in a heavenly afterlife?

Would it matter after all this time if that descendant prayed for Robin Hood's soul?

A British Garden Society

Thank you for your comment below in answer to my previous observation and question.

Community gardens might be the Unitedstatesian equivalent of allotment sites. They therefore might be under Parks and Recreation.

Might the local council be municipal-government officials meeting about allotment sites or might it be a specific entity, such as the Unitedstatesian parks and recreation department of city government?

Wilding: a review

Thank you for your comment below in answer to my previous observation and question.

Wood pigeons around allotment sites may not be among the wildlife that most matters to allottees.

Allotment sites perhaps niche such beneficial insects as butterflies. What would be beneficial animals?

Mousehole to Lamorna: on the South West Coast Path

Thank you for your comment below in answer to my previous observation and question.

That chicory is not a popular plant intrigues me.

Paternal-line ancestors led settling my home state. They missed their English tea. The plant that produced a hot drink -- more like coffee -- somewhat competitive with their English tea turned out to be chicory.

Would hot chicory drinks not be popular with east pond-siders?

Surprise at Stonehenge

Thank you for your comment below in answer to my previous question.

Unitedstatesians might pronounce Mey like the month of May. Would that be what British Isles-ers do?
