my e-reader, with the Cadfael series pulled up, all in order with matching covers.
ah, what a nicely organized series of books. #Cadfael
A medieval leper in fictional guise: he wears ragged clothes and face mask with eyeholes, arm folded, every inch of skin obscured. Behind him a younger leper with auburn hair, hand and face still showing. The view is of a porch; the two lepers are walking out into sunlight. Blog title: Cadfael's Lepers on World Leprosy Day.
Before we see them, we hear them. Cowbells. Clappers. Warning before encounter. "The real challenge is stigma."
On #WorldLeprosyDay, I explore the uneasy balance of care and exclusion through Cadfael S1E3.

The view along the River Severn to an 18th century bridge, with a church on the far bank at the right hand end of the bridge. The water is still and mirror-like, reflecting the bridge, steeple and clouds above. The bridge was rebuilt in the 20th century, re-using the original materials.
English Bridge and the United Reformed Church, #Shrewsbury. The bridge is the historic eastern route into and from the city, with the Benedictine Monastery (of #Cadfael fame, now Shrewsbury Abbey) a few hundred yards down the road to the right. #SteepleSaturday #RiverSevern #Shropshire

Cover art from the first Cadfael omnibus by Ellis Peters.
'The #Anarchy', also known as 'The 19 Year Winter', will, of course, be familiar as the backdrop to the "Ellis Peters" (Edith Pargeter) #Cadfael books & the TV series starring Derek Jacobi. #History

UK folks cancelling #Disney, did you know that #ITV has a free catch-up service for which you donโt even need a TV licence? It has LOTS of lovely series to binge on as well as films & everything else!
My Autumn watchlist: Sapphire & Steel, Robin of Sherwood, #Marple, Poirot, & dear old #Cadfael
Selfie of Kalum in front of Shrewsbury Cathedral. His face is mostly hidden behind a walking guide titled "In the footsteps of Brother Cadfael"
I went on a little pilgrimage this week.
Saint Winifred's relic already left the premises though.

โI suppose โฆ you will tell me roundly that God's reach is longer than man's.โ

I have a free trial of #BritBox & watching #Cadfael based on the #BrotherCadfael mysteries by the late #EllisPeters It's not half bad, albeit even with #DerekJacobi playing Cadfael it doesn't quite have the life of the books ๐, but it's pretty accurate historically, & the costumes & settings.๐

โSuch justice as we see is also but a broken shred. But it is our duty to preserve what we may, and fit together such fragments as we find, and take the rest on trust.โ #bookoftheday #booksky #books #Cadfael
Another Cadfael screenshot redraw because that show and series of books hold a special place in my heart. Don't remember who this guy is though. #cadfael #digitalart
If you live in the right region, you should check out the Cadfael rose. It was developed by Sir Derek Jacobi, the star of the medieval mystery series โCadfael.โ #Cadfael
Oh, dear, between this & #Cadfael I may have to sign up for a free trial.๐ ^^ty ๐ for letting me know.
โTo tell the truth, he had enjoyed the storms no less than he now enjoyed the calm, if this was indeed calm: but each had its own time and place.โ #bookoftheday #booksky #books #Cadfael
My latest #BookTube video is up now. It's an unscripted wrap-up of all my March reads. I ponder whether I've overdosed on #Cadfael, find myself pleasantly surprised by my least favourite #Discworld sub-series, and weigh up the pros and cons of #Chekhov and #Ibsen. youtu.be/KR_h8zUsySw
