Dennis, I love listening to these conversations and I tune in every week with excitement for the next instalment.

For the first time though, I was on the edge of my seat listening, and honestly quite emotional and moved listening to you both discuss the women in your lives and the misogyny within this whole gender mess. As a woman, every day I am truly horrified daily by what I see and I genuinely worry about where it’s all going. Thank you both for discussing this!

Enjoy Australia Dennis 🇦🇺

'Beira' pronounced, By-ra, is the Goddess of Winter and the mother of all the old Scots Celtic gods & goddesses.

In winter, she disguises herself as a wee old lady, with long grey hair, dressed in rags. She has only the one eye, not like a cyclops, one eye is simply missing from its socket. The remaining eye is piercing blue. (Beira has striking similarities to the one-eyed King of the Norse Gods, 'Odin').

Beira carries a staff of entined gorse and holly tree-roots, with which she taps the earth, freezing it hard.

Spurn, mock or ignore wee Beira at your peril. She enacts a terrible reckoning.

Waur meddle wi Scots wummin Nicola Sturgeon, et al!
