So I made a resolution to Be Better about posting on this blog...and then completely failed to actually act on that resolution...

Therefore to make up for my non-posteriness, I come bearing pics of the Mari Lwyd, as enacted at St Fagans Folk Museum in the rain last night, because nothing says Christmas quite like a skeleton horse head on a stick - enjoy!




If you want to see videos, you'll have to pop over to Twitter and check them out there cause I can't figure out how to embed them here!

And it you want to know the meaning of the Mari Lwyd, over on Tumblr you will find a better explanation than I could ever write, so go read that!

LOL, it is quite the tradition!!

Every time I see your Mari Lwyd posts, I am once again delighted.

Even if I'm almost certainly mispronouncing that wrong in my head.

Oh, ah, if you have an image hosted on Tumblr, and place it in a DW post, switch to html and stick this code inside the brackets of the image tag, outside the quotes for the image url...

style="max-width: 100%;"

Which means, "whatever size it really is, don't let this thing be any wider than the paragraph/column/chunk of page containing it."

There's some way to hard code that into one's theme so it does it automatically, but I forget how.
