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!
