Here, we've been too busy preparing for Hallowe'en, which in these parts is
follwed far too quickly by the local fire-festival on November 5th:
Kerrowse'en. I have no idea who or what Kerrow was (perhaps the obscure St
Kerrian: "feast unknown"). but I wonder if it is mere coincidence that the
saint celebrated in the breton calendar on November 6th is St Efflam?
Hope this gets you all fired-up,
Henry Gough-Cooper@Dumfriesshire, Scotland.
