It is the Feast of St Gwinear. A 5th C prince he had such a nice time hunting with St Patrick he renounced his throne for Jesus...

@RevRichardColes Thank you for St Gwinear's story. My grandparents lived at Gwinear Road, Hayle, Cornwall. There was a pond. I wonder . . ?

@RevRichardColes I live 5 minutes from the village of Gwinear, but never heard that yarn before. Every day's a school day etc

@RevRichardColes I will feast for him today as it's my birthday and I've never had a chance to make a magical drinking fountain for dogs.
...He wrought many miracles, including making a magic drinking fountain for dogs. In the end wicked King Teudar of Cornwall ...

@RevRichardColes What a shame. Drowning in a foetid pond a far more poetic death than decapitation.

@Kazak1842 Eve better, the foetid pond was full of poisonous serpents.

@RevRichardColes Nice use of the word foetid, you don't hear it enough - particularly before breakfast. Morning!
