Colmán’s Legacy: From Lindisfarne to Inishbofin (Possibly via Commondale?)
Today marks the anniversary of the death of Colmán of Lindisfarne in the year 675. A fine excuse, I thought, to wander over to Commondale, a place supposedly named after the saint.

Hardly the sort of day for a leisurely stroll around Kildale Moor, but, there I have been, engaged in the enthralling task of surveying Bronze ...

Scottiesaur, the mascot toy for #Scotiacon 2024. She's kind of the Gorosaurus analog as far as my kaiju and kaiju-adjacent inflatables go.
