June, you are awful :) It's a difficult path trying to believe in fairies and rationality at the same time don't you know.

Science is good though. I was watching 'The Sky at Night' the other day and it's amazing what clever human beings are discovering, eg. the Gaia satellite has been taking images of our Milky Way galaxy and it has 50% more stars than we previously thought! how crazy is that. Plus there are some stars moving in a funny direction which suggests we've already collided and merged with another galaxy. Amazing stuff which ironically keeps your feet on the ground.

Some of us have problems with both .

I was only teasing Rhiannon. I love the magic of fairy stories and the other worldly feeling you get in certain places and at dawn and dusk. I know our whole planet with all its human-made problems is just a tiny speck in the universe.

Talking of 'magic' - had a bit of a sofa day yesterday fighting off flu bug. Watched the movie Paddington. A talking, reading, writing bear - I believed him (for ninety minutes anyway).
