2023 Day 209
For some reason best known to itself, Blogger has started changing my Cornish spelling into absolute gibberish. I shall have to think of a different way of publishing.
The words below are not what I wrote.
I'll see if Facebook does any better.

I thought about swans today. They are water birds. You can see many mute swans in many wet places in Cornwall - pools, ponds, lakes, streams, rivers, estuaries and more. They were already here hundreds, perhaps thousands, of years ago. In England they all belong to the King. In the Duchy of Cornwall? Who knows? Were they important? Royal people ate them. There was a place (quite big) named for swans in the Domesday Book (1086) after the Norman Conquest - "A swans place/stream". A church (St Symphorian) was built and the name changed > Severian > Veryan. But there are still roads called "Elerkey".
