A gorgeous Yew 🌲 in Friars Bush Cemetery in south Belfast. Local legend holds that the Friar was hung from a Hawthorn 🌳 within the grounds💀
Yew are so toxic that even edible 🍄 found growing on them shouldn't be consumed (so I've heard)
The 🍒 flesh is delightful but just a few seeds would kill a 🐎
The Rowan Fairy inviting the birds 🐦⬛ to share in the feast 🍒 prepared by the tree
In Irish folklore, however, the Rowan 🌳 keeps the wee folk at bay 🧚🏻
Growing by the river it keeps children safe from fairies that cruise the rivers looking for youngsters to take to The Otherworld

There is no certainty as to how one would reach The Celtic Otherworld but one way is Mag Mell "The Plain of Honey" ☀️ ☁️
When the sun rises and sets and casts a glimmer on the sea's horizon or sparkles on Ireland's rivers & lakes ☁️✨
It is at these fleeting times that doorways can open
Changing seasons are magical The Irish Sea God Manannán mac Lir lives on an Island named Eamhain Abhlach "twins abundant with apples" 💮❄️
The apples 🍏 on this island are golden & when the wind blows in the branches of the trees anyone who hears them rustle will forget all their troubles & sadness.
Gorse is back in flower 💛
It keeps malevolent fairies at bay when planted around your home but is also known to be a sanctuary for witches 🧹 When being hunted a witch may transform into a 🐇 and seek refuge amongst the dense gorse in the fields 🌼✨

Your sons and daughters too;
The finest banquet of your lives
Is here prepared for you.”🍒🍂
To ancient Slavs the Oak 🌳 was sacred to the God Perun, the God of Thunder & Justice. He once broke the divine rules of the Gods by interacting with mortals (out of pity rather than arrogance) Seeing that we were cold ❄️ Perun gifted us warmth by using his lightning bolts to set 🔥 to trees 🍂🔥🍂

Hi.. it’s me little Baxter ❤️
Hoping to find my friends!
No problem, just glad you will get some answers, I know it took some time for Jock to settle after I changed his diet. I very rarely look on here but I did yesterday and the first post I saw was yours. Glad I could help X
Yes, gluten free, I remember now. Good luck and I hope you feeling better soon 💕
😢 Hope all is ok now
Try and take a video when Olls is having an episode to give to your vet. 💕
There is information online too. It’s canine epileptoid cramping syndrome. Hope you can get some answers
Me too, it took a long time to figure out what was happening and the answer was changing diet. It wasn’t nice though
Yes Jock was sick afterwards, he couldn’t stand up and would roll his head from side to side. He knew it was going to happen too. If you look on YouTube at Cannine Epileptic Cramping Syndrome, that is how he was.
I can’t properly remember, I think it was a trial and error situation, I know I had to stop giving him anything with Beef in it and he had food for sensitive tummy. It happened in clusters then disappeared for a long time then came back. It wasn’t nice to watch it when it happened
Sorry to butt in but I just seen this. My Jock used to have fit like episodes for many years that turned out not to be epilepsy. It was cramping in his stomach a bit like CECS which is prevalent in Border Terriers. Anyway, changed his diet and it settled, still had bouts of colic but not as bad.
