Re: Foula still uses Ancient calendar system, Yule is 6th January. by AngieLake on Friday, 06 January 2017

Thought this article was interesting:
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4090662/The-island-ll-Christmas-TOMORROW-Remote-Shetland-isle-uses-2-000-year-old-calendar-New-Year-won-t-ring-January-13.html
It also reminds me of the upside-down 'V' feature on Stone 16 at Stonehenge that is highlighted on 6th Dec and 6th January at sunrise, which might be more significant given the ancient way of calculating the years... (ok, that was erected or carved way before this calendar, but still....)


Something is not right. This message is just to keep things from messing up down the road
