Pleased to hear it 😀.

Although, alas, I think we have uncovered the flaw in my plan of having my subject commune with be-helmeted Saxons.

Next year I shall introduce some sort of ID card system.

In that case I am sure Doris could be persuaded to grant an exclusive in return for suitable recompense.

Are you asking out of personal curiosity or in your professional capacity as editor of the gazette?

We are pleased to say that Doris has reported a communing has taken place with a mystery be-helmeted visitor to the beach,
the communing was described by Doris as 'adequate'

The Kingdoms of Crab & Man must now wait to see if we shall hear the scuttle of tiny claws 🤞

Foolish mortal! Not waiting as in serving dinner but waiting as in hanging around for the saxon to turn up so that they may commune and Doris may become the mother of a new race of powerful Helmet Crabs.

Nevermind that nonsense. The time of the "communing" is only 48 hours away.

Your consort for the ceremony has been chosen and awaits you..

Now hear This!

There are 4 (FOUR) days remaining till the first full moon after Michelmas

Your Bretwalda @wulfhelm.bsky.social should be leaving for the coast very soon to be in good time for the 'communing'

Please lend him your support at this important time

Quite. We try and encourage him to bathe, but....

I'd get going with that then, before the dopey lizard gets in on the act.
And be aware, there's usually a big audience to cheer him on anyway👇
