I haven’t finished reading this yet, but I’m copying your paragraph about calling the electrician to come to my house and fix whatever is wrong!

I remember hearing someone read 'the dream of the rood' at an evening service at church when I must have been about 8, I was definitely under 10. I totally captured my imagination because it was so creative.

Food for thought indeed! Funnily enough I am just reading David Mitchell’s ‘Unruly - Horrible Histories for Grownups’ and just got to the bit where he talks about Alfred the Great. There’s coincidence…..

I've got that on Audible. Not read it yet. I'd be interested to hear his take on Alfred.
