We endeavour to identify and promote an interest in tales specific to the County of Norfolk (UK) and its immediate county neighbours. These tales will, inevitably, be far ranging and will include topics of Fact, Fiction, Historical, Contemporary, Mythological, Folklore – and probably much more. Our aim is to air these topics.
In airing any topic, we do not set out to be confrontational, just friendly and informative; the vast majority of our readers like that – and have said so. Where something runs off the rails (which, quite frankly, is probably unbelieveably rare), we quietly get things back on track and move on. With regard to such topics as myths and folklore etc., it comes as no surprise to us that some people are quite dismissive. Those stateside, on the other side of the pond, are known to utter the word ‘twaddle’ in response, finding it amusing that others can see sense and possibly a degree of comfort from reading about such topics. But, as some psychologists believe, modern people need myths etc. to make sense of their lives and that without these they are, possibly, prey to anxiety? We are only here to help!
ENJOY YOUR STAY.
